Since nothing in our ports-tree seems to depend on net/libsrtp at the moment
anyway, I'd rather our port offered the very latest from upstream.

The trouble with following such branches is that the version (DISTVERSION) does
not change even after the upstream makes another commit. Thus, the timestamp
(and the commit tag/hash/id) remains the only way to track the upstream sources
in the sortable way. Yes, going from timestamp back to "normal" versions (like
N.M.K) will be difficult, but there is not really a good alternative.

Would it look better as 2.0.0.20141224 ?

Thanks for the offer, but I was hoping, that you'd put an example right here.
If you don't feel like it, then let's leave this PR between myself and the
port's current maintainer.
