Is it good to have port versions as hex numbers?

One committer suggested to make GH_TAGNAME into a port version by 
prepending with 'g', like this: ntk-g92365ec.

IMO, this is only good when pkg can understand such version numbers as 
increasing when interpreted as hexadecimal numbers.

Does pkg understand this?
