Using "999" or something like that might be distinguishing enough that
we don't need a suffix. Allowing suffixes of some sort sounds useful,
but we don't need it.

(Meanwhile, I've read your other replies.)

(defmethod asdf:version-satisfies ((c (eql (asdf:find-system :cffi)))
                                   version)
  (declare (ignore version))
  (or (null (asdf:component-version c))
      (call-next-method)))

How unwise is this? :-)

I don't like committing version bumps, so CFFI's current setup creates
a tag and sets the system version on the release tarball only.
