[issue14894] distutils.LooseVersion fails to compare number and a word

[Dwayne Litzenberger]

Dwayne Litzenberger added the comment:

As far as a real-world example is concerned, if you're using git-describe to generate your version numbers, you can pretty easily end up with something like "ab25c6fe95ee92fac3187dcd90e0560ccacb084a".
