Pushing out-of-sync updates to EPEL stable: Problematic?

There was a recent flurry of updates to the new freecad package, with
one Bodhi update including updates to OCE and smesh [1].
A following update to freecad was pushed to stable before the previous
one, which contained the OCE update, was pushed, as a user reported [2].
Clearly, the OCE and smesh updates need to be pushed to stable. Will it
cause problems that the obsolete freecad package is part of the same
update? Of course I hope that the current freecad, with a newer package
revision, would 'win' and the obsolete freecad would be dropped from the
update, but I don't want any surprises.
Thanks-
John
