IIRC, (big if), the package corresponding to the category that was renamed will 
not contain any code if you browse it, but neither is it marked as dirty.
So by default, you probably wouldn't  publish the new, empty version of the 
package unless you looked for it specifically.
New packages created before or after renaming an existing category will not be 
marked dirty as a consequence of the category rename either.

If you change the category of a single class however, both old and new package 
will be marked dirty. (Except if you create the new package after performing 
the rename)

TLDR; 
The packages will contain the correct code, if you publish them.
Marking packages as dirty does not work for category renames, but do work for 
single class renaming done by recompiling class definition.

Cheers,
Henry
