Interesting.  We discussed this exact thing just before 2.0 in

    http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/247511/focus=248858

and nobody seems to have noticed that giving the new range notation
to vsatisfies is too new back then.

Indeed.

My Tcl is not just rusty but corroded, so help me out here.

 * Your version that compares the sign of the result looks more
   correct than $gmane/248858; was the patch proposed back then but
   did not get applied wrong?  This question is out of mere
   curiosity.

 * Would it be a good idea to update the places $gmane/248895 points
   out?  It is clearly outside the scope of this fix, but we may
   want to do so while our mind is on the "how do we check required
   version?" in a separate patch.

Thanks.
