I agree that promoting the actual built artifacts is the best way, but
what about projects that have filtered the build number into the
artifact somehow? (we use a property file that is filtered)

Ya... the build would need to use the release numbers for all those
bits, and only use the rc bits for the artifacts.

Else, you'd have to rebuild... but by rebuilding you basically
invalidate any assurance that the new build will be the same as the rc
build which presumably was voted upon.  So the only real option is to
make a release build with the real release numbers internally, but
publish the jars with their rc versions.  And once approved copy the rc
artifacts to the release artifacts.
