For the moment I've used:

  Release: 0.1.r11
What issue are you trying to solve by this choice?

You are not solving anything.
I don't understand what you mean.
Let me turn my question around: Why can't you directly use the upstream version?

Prepending 0.0 before the SVN version would avoid the need for an epoch
should upstream decide later on to release numbered versions, even one
as low as 0.1.
Correct in case of svn snapshot version.

But this doesn't apply here. This upstream releases releases but call them "r<N>".

(Though it cannot cover all possible ways upstream might
use to number releases.)
Correct.
