Up to the maintainer ultimately.

To avoid PORTEPOCH, either the typo'd datestamp scheme (0XX for month)
would need to continue until 3.7, or an alternate scheme created that is
both meaningful and > than (pkg version -t old new) the current value.

Or fix the typo and add PORTEPOCH.

Personally, I'd go the first option as it's only a minor typo that
doesn't affect ongoing existing-scheme version updates, and is the more
transient of the two (PORTEPOCH lives forever, bad scheme only lasts
till 3.7).
