In my opinion the version number of the RPM should not include that 
_XXXX suffix. We should build packages using the numbering schema 
recommended for snapshot and pre-release packages here:

http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:NamingGuidelines#Release_Tag

So the pre-release numbers should be something like this:

3.1.0-0.1.20120615git0a4333
3.1.0-0.2.20120618git94a365
...

That way the day we do the release we can change to this numbering:

3.1.0-1
3.1.0-2
...

And any release number will be greater than any pre-release number.
