Remember that whatever is uploaded to unstable should be a candidate for a stable release. Anyway, the 'rc' here adds two characters - the rest of your version string must be quite large to make this into a problem. Of course, if a RC lasts forever and a NMU is needed, and then a binNMU is requested (for a version uploaded to stable), you might end up with 1.2.10~rc110428-4.2+r1+b1 - Still at 25 charactes. And that's already an obscenely large version string!
