That could and has caused errors, one of the 4.10.0 RC had to be redone because 
of this exact issue.

Making and testing a RC is a lot of effort and I rather make that easier rather 
than harder or ending up with an RC missing a build number.

Take a  look at building the release here:
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/FLEX/Release+Guide+for+the+SDK

"Other ant targets you may want to become familiar with are source-release, 
source-package, binary-release, binary-package and rat-check. These are useful 
if you modify the files in the kit and you want to short circuit some of the 
build process to test your changes."

Thanks,
Justin
