I wouldn't include _ in alphanumerics. If it is indeed not allowed, it
would be the most conventional choice.

No, they might have used this in older versions, before using epochs.

I was beating on gawk this morning before work, and I've discovered
why it won't compile:
The following command is run (chained through the root Makefile, from
debian/rules):
/disk1/build-dir/group/Debian/package/gawk/version/1:3.0.6-1/gawk-3.0.6# make
-d info
datadir=/disk1/build
