I could issue an update to fedora-release, making it 8.91, and then do
it again for Beta.  For alpha it's a little weird, because it is just a
snapshot of rawhide.  I couldn't necessarily change the fedora-release
value in rawhide at that time, because rawhide moves on and it wouldn't
be 8.91 anymore, or it wouldn't match the snapshot.  This is why I
question the usefulness of version number like this.

Uh.. it's rawhide, not sure what you're asking here.
