How is the version inferred with?  Without it:

    opam pin foo git://github.com/mirage/foo

...will have the version of the latest release, I believe.  That in turn may 
not be enough, since we want the pin to be latest_release+1 to ensure it's 
higher than any existing constraints that may hold it back.
