This is intended for packages compiled to run on another operating system than Linux, such as cygwin or Darwin. It is set using --with-pkg-extra-version.
The package filename format is as follows:
{name}-{version}-{rel}-{extraversion}{arch}{ext}

I'm not sure why this is needed and will need more explanation... is this so foo-1-1-i686.pkg.tar.gz does not have the same file name on (e.g.) windows and linux? Surely they would be in different repos and the name conflict will never arrive. Allan
