Yes. Or you can backport the fix as patch. Or say "that's just a bugfix"
release.

</I>
Perl-URPM would not require a version upgrade, so would not need anyone
to push, as well as drakxinstall-stage2.
Since a fix to rpm would be a patch, that's also no a version upgrade.
So for version freeze, there is no need of anything special.
And for release freeze, I would hope that we do not need fix that
requires to rebuild 4 differents rpms. At least not more than once...

</I>
No, for the aformentioned reasons.
