 Replying to [comment:1 RJVB]:
 > This update has taken me way more time than it should have, because of a
 regression causing the build to fail.

 provide arguments why a newer version is better and/or the upgrade urgent.

 I merely noticed a new version was available so I filed a ticket. That's
 all.

 > And if we really have to split hairs: the non-devel port grabs the
 tarball corresponding to a release version. A tarball containing a release
 is a release tarball AFAIAC, regardless of how it was made.

 GitHub offers four different types of file downloads; you can specify in
 the `github.tarball_from` option which type you want. Based on the string
 that appears in their URLs, I'm naming those types "archive", "tarball",
 "downloads" and "releases". Since you haven't specified
 `github.tarball_from`, you get the default, which is a "tarball" not a
 "release". This GitHub project does not offer any "releases".
