No it doesn't.

Available perl-Font-FFT RPMS in FE repos:

   ./4/SRPMS/perl-Font-TTF-0.38.1-1.fc4.src.rpm
   ./5/SRPMS/perl-Font-TTF-0.38.1-1.fc5.src.rpm
   ./development/SRPMS/perl-Font-TTF-0.40.0-2.fc6.src.rpm

Comparing version 0.38.1 against 0.40

  $ fedora-rpmvercmp 0 0.38.1 1  0 0.40 1
  0:0.40-1 is newer

Comparing version 0.40 against 0.40.0

  $ fedora-rpmvercmp 0 0.40 1  0 0.40.0 1
  0:0.40.0-1 is newer

And even if it did screw the RPM ordering you could
always bump the epoch.
