  I do not have the time to check this thoroughly right now, but I
  recall having suggested that ASDF shouldn't impose any constraints on
  version "numbers", but rather defer version comparison to libraries
  when they use a version numbering scheme that ASDF doesn't understand.
  This can be done by providing generic functions like version-> etc.,
  and letting people provide methods on them.

  There may even be an issue and a patch lurking around somewhere.
  Again, sorry for being fuzzy, this is just from the top of my head.
