[Slapt-get-user] Possible Bug on Passing Option to Slapt-src

I recently tried to install an earlier version (0.98.4) of clamav than 
what was available in the Slackbuild repository using slapt-src. 
Slackbuild repository had the 0.98.5 version so I attempted to pass the 
VERSION option to slapt-src as follows:

*/# VERSION=0.98.4 slapt-src -i clamav/**/
/*
Slapt-src downloaded the 0.95.5 version instead and then failed when 
trying to untar the 0.95.4 version.  Here's the console log:

/*root[system]# VERSION="0.98.4" slapt-src -i clamav*//*
*//*The following packages will be installed:*//*
*//* clamav *//*
*//*Do you want to continue? [y/N] y*//*
*//*Fetching README...Done*//*
*//*Fetching README.SLACKWARE...Done*//*
*//*Fetching clamav.SlackBuild...Done*//*
*//*Fetching clamav.info...Done*//*
*//*Fetching doinst.sh...Done*//*
*//*Fetching logrotate.clamav...Done*//*
*//*Fetching rc.clamav...Done*//*
*//*Fetching slack-desc...Done*//*
*//*Fetching 
http://downloads.sourceforge.net/clamav/clamav-0.98.5.tar.gz...Done*//*
*//*tar: /usr/src/slapt-src/system/clamav/clamav-0.98.4.tar.gz: Cannot 
open: No such file or directory*//*
*//*tar: Error is not recoverable: exiting now*//*
*//*fakeroot -- sh clamav.SlackBuild Failed*//*
*/
So it looks like the VERSION argument doesn't get set in the the 
download URL.

There is also a very real possibility that I did something wrong.

Thanks for your time.
