[arch-haskell] For the brave: alternative versioning in testing repo

A problem raised when I tried to updates my repository:

    $ cblrepo add -d Diff,0.3.2_0,1
    option -d: Cannot parse 'Diff,0.3.2_0,1' as PKG,VER,REL

Seems like cblrepo doesn't parse the underscore character in the version
field.
