Ok just trying to determine if I should version bump my packages, Gentoo
ebuilds. I guess maybe I should to help see if I run into odd build
issues from source.

Yes its odd, and that -attempt1 or vote1 would make it more clear. But

the suffix just stick with RC. I think most people know a RC is that,
and not an actual final release.
