 These lines cannot stay in the Portfile. They cause the problem described
 in this ticket. Ports cannot change the version number after setting
 it—not in a phase, not in a variant, not ever.

 In case it's not clear, MacPorts will ''not'' automatically set the
 version back to the previous value after the extract phase, ''unless'' the
 user runs phases separately, e.g. `sudo port extract` followed by a later
 phase like `sudo port build`. And if I do run the phases separately like
 that, it fails with a "No such file or directory" error since it's looking
 for a 9.3.1.11 directory but there is actually a 9.3.0 directory.
