Builtin packages versions mess?

Hi,

I'm looking into an annoying problem with Emacs trunk #114709.
Some packages refuse to get installed because 
emacs 24.1 is not installed.

Here is what I get for the package--builtin-versions variable:

package--builtin-versions is a variable defined in `startup.el'.
Its value is shown below.

Documentation:
Alist giving the version of each versioned builtin package.
I.e. each element of the list is of the form (NAME . VERSION) where
NAME is the package name as a symbol, and VERSION is its version
as a list.

Value: ((ws-mode 0 7)
 (woman 0 551)
 (emacs 1 9920)         ;  <=== Problem here!
 (whitespace 13 2 2)
 ...
 (allout 2 3)
 (emacs 24 3 50))

The widget.el file has:

;;; widget.el --- a library of user interface components
;;
;; Copyright (C) 1996-1997, 2001-2013 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
;;
;; Author: Per Abrahamsen <address@hidden>
;; Keywords: help, extensions, faces, hypermedia
;; Version: 1.9920
;; X-URL: http://www.dina.kvl.dk/~abraham/custom/
;; Package: emacs

It is clear that the package version and package name has been imported into 
this list of versions, but in an improper way.

Is it a know problem?
Am I lagging behind development trunk?

Best regards,

Fabrice
