Perhaps we're misunderstanding each other here.

Its my understanding that the version number in the rpm should match the
upstream source of the same version number (whats pointed to by the Source0: tag
in my spec file).  On that I think we both agree.  Please correct me if I'm wrong

What you've noticed is that I've posted several rpms to this bug, all of which
have the same version number, different revision numbers but contain the same
file set (i.e. no patches against the new revisions).  The implication that
you're concerned with here, if I'm understanding your concern, is that clearly
I've then modified the pristine source tarball that I'm pointing at.  And thats
badness. 

Nominally thats just not something that should be done.  I've been making the
changes in my upstream git tree in parallel, updating the tarball on
fedorahosted, and rebuilding the pakage with the same version.  The only reason
that I'm doing it now is that you're having me make minor cleanups to this
package in preparation for release to Fedora, and I'd really like to have the
first release of the package be identical to the first release of the tarball on
 the hosted site (silly I know, its just an OCD idosyncracy of mine).  Its
really just for convienience right now while you're reviewing this package. 
Once you give it the green light, I'll certainly not make changes to the 0.4
revision upstream.  That tag will stay fixed, and I'll bump the version number.

Does that adequately describe and satisfy your concerns?

Thanks for all your dilligent work on this review!
