Not a major problem, as far as I know.

I was prompted to (re-?) post the suggestion by a message to the
evolution-hackers list where it was suggested that Evolution changes
from using pre-release version bump to using post-release bump. So
clearly at least some people find it important and beneficial that
right after a release the version in SVN is incremented, to clearly
separate the release and subsequent development. Presumably, other
people then again have the opposite view, they find it important that
the version is incremented when a release is made, to make a clean cut
between the development up to the release and the actual release.
Doing both pre- and post-release bumping should satisfy both groups,
shouldn't it?

Not as far as I know.
