I don't think the releases work that way. Historically I don't think we've ever used a fourth digit in the version string. If we need a new release after the rc series, we increment the third digit, for example 23.1.4 to 23.1.5.

I still think we should change this, but seeing as how the final rc was already released, this problem won't manifest again until the 24.x release.
