I'm not sure putting VERSION under flavors control is 
supported/suggested. Would make managing the port quite more complicated 
anyway.

A separate port for the older version would be more reasonable, the name 
I suggested for such a port it is also suboptimal. The name should have 
at least an indication this is an old version.
