what about other special cases when using 0.1 for the release to

None of that needs to change just because a buildtag is appended.
Whenever the source code changes in any way, one or more of the current
parts of the Version and Release fields should be updated. For a
rebuild, when the source code hasn't changed, the spec wouldn't need to
change either, and only the buildtag would set the rebuilt package
apart from the previous one.
