Basically, here's what happened (as I understand it, so I could be massively wrong). Marcelo released 2.4.18-rc4. Mandrake's developers incorporate it into .17-21mdk (why the switch to .21mdk, btw?). Marcelo decides that 2.4.18 is ready and accidentally (I imagine) copies 2.4.18-rc3 instead of -rc4 to be the new 2.4.18. Marcelo copies 2.4.18-rc4 over to 2.4.19-pre1.
