Why don't you hack the port? You will need to edit the Makefile to  
read the right version number and edit the distinfo file to reflect  
the right version (And change the checksums and file sizes) you should  
then be able to make and install as normal (I don't think any of the  
dependencies have changed so you should be fine).

While this is not the elegant solution the JP would create, I have  
done this a couple of times quite successfully.
