I usually do something like this:

$ sudo port extract pev
$ grep -C 1 -r 'your option' $(port work pev)

which in this case leads to output like this for many files:

.../work/pev-0.60/lib/libpe/pe.c-       the Free Software Foundation, either 
version 3 of the License, or
.../work/pev-0.60/lib/libpe/pe.c:       (at your option) any later version.
.../work/pev-0.60/lib/libpe/pe.c-

The presence of "or (at your option) any later version" is what tells us 
whether to put the "+" after the version number.

As added confirmation, the "license" file is GPL 3 (though if it didn't match, 
I would still probably go by the version number in the source files).
