No but do you want the RPM version to also reflect that version information?

If so you'd have to update the version information in `configure.ac` 
before generating the RPM (if you use our SPEC file and build process). 
To do that you'd want to update `version_extra` before running autogen.sh.

If you're not worried about the RPM version then you should be able to 
patch make-version.pl in the SPEC File with the info you want (in the 
lines before the SPEC file calls `make`).
