Some have different Release scheme dependinf if it is a snapshot or not:

%if %beta
Release:        %mkrel 0.%{pre}
%else
Release:        %mkrel 1
%endif

But same thing seems to work:

[pterjan at chopin cauldron-auto]$ svn diff alsa-oss/alsa-oss.spec

Was properly updated to have %define rel 2 but good news is that this
package is not on the mirrors :)

I will publish a (quite short) list of packages that can't be updated
and are on the mirrors
