I see this too on NetBSD 10.0. I was the one who last updated it and I
wasn't aware of this discrepancy. Probably it was "always" that way; at
least in the previous version of the PLIST.

I would expect that having a versioned file is in general better than
having an unversioned file. So if you can find out why the file doesn't
have a version number on NetBSD, and fix that, that would be great.
(This sort of thing is usually some relatively subtle issue that may be
hard to find but easy to fix)
