It will be quite confusing when this package version will be 251~rc1 but the
stuff it signed will be 252~rc3. That's why. Release numbers can get out of
sync, I was talking about the version.
E.g.:
BuildRequires: %{source_rpm_name} = %{version}

Related suggestion -- what if you added:
Provides: bundled(%{source_rpm_name}) = %(rpm -q --qf
'%%{VERSION}-%%{RELEASE}')
That way, the version-release will be repoqueriable. The current way, the
version is only in description, which is harder to get.
