I humbly suggest that the versioning recommendation for the GTK+ stack
and GNOME in general is amended for the third micro part of the
version numbers to match the convention used in cairo.
See http://cairographics.org/manual/cairo-Version-Information.html .
In a nutshell, the idea is that

This has the advantage that there is never any confusion whether
pre-release or post-release bump is used. Code from a SVN checkout can
always be recognised by its odd micro number, and correspondingly code
from a released tarball
Is this a current problem now?
Not a major problem, as far as I know.
I was prompted to (re-?) post the suggestion by a message to the
evolution-hackers list where it was suggested that Evolution changes

The problem I see with the proposed scheme is that we can't

make distcheck
and get, in theory, exactly the tarball that's sitting on
ftp.gnome.org.
