Red version numbers

I've noticed that some packages have their version number in red colour on package lists like

http://www.archlinux.org/packages/?sort=-last_update

In particular I've noticed that one of such packages is kdebase-workspace, which is giving me some trouble, so I'd like to know whether the red colour of the version number means that there's something wrong with the package, has other meaning, or means nothing at all.

It means it is flagged out of date.
