None of the AUR helpers will handle this

I think I have found the 3rd possible (and probably best) way: according to http://epiar.net/trac/roadmap the new 0.5 version will come out very soon: the mantainer could simply raise the pkgrel (adapting the PKGBUILD to new course) and solve the update tech problem :) if mantainer is not interested, since from 2008 he didn't take action, i can adopt it, but i will wait for version to come out and will contact him about it before.
