If I'm not missing something I think this is already supported
(DISCLAIMER: I've only quickly tested that via pkg_admin(1) `pmatch'
command!), e.g.:

 % pkg_admin pmatch 'foo>=0.1nb2' 'foo-0.1nb2'
 % pkg_admin pmatch 'foo>=0.1nb2.1' 'foo-0.1nb2'
 Exit 1
 % pkg_admin pmatch 'foo>=0.1nb2.1' 'foo-0.1nb2.2'

I'm not sure if a possible LOCALREVISION.pkgname or
LOCALREVISION.${PKGPATH} can be easily injected to PKGREVISION
directly via mk.conf though!
