That's because rpmEVRcmp() is botched.

rpmdb/rpmvercmp.c:
   155  /* Compare {A,B} [epoch:]version[-release] */
   156  int 
   157  rpmEVRcmp(const char * const aE, const char * const aV, const char * const aR,
   158            const char * const aDepend,
   159            const char * const bE, const char * const bV, const char * const bR,
   160            const char * const bDepend)
   161  {
   162      int sense = 0;
   163  
   164      rpmMessage(RPMMESS_DEBUG, "cmp e=%s, v=%s, r=%s\n and e=%s, v=%s, r=%s\n ",
   165                 aE, aV, aR, bE, bV, bR);
   166  
   167  
   168      if (aE && *aE && bE && *bE)
   169          sense = rpmvercmp(aE, bE);
   170      else if (aE && *aE && atol(aE) > 0) {
   171          /* XXX legacy epoch-less requires/conflicts compatibility */
   172          rpmMessage(RPMMESS_DEBUG, _("the \"B\" dependency needs an epoch (assuming same as \"A\")\n\tA %s\tB %s\n"),
   173                  aDepend, bDepend);
   174          sense = 0;
   175      } else if (bE && *bE && atol(bE) > 0)
   176          sense = -1;
   177  
   178      if (sense == 0) {
   179          sense = rpmvercmp(aV, bV);
   180          if (sense == 0 && aR && *aR && bR && *bR) {
   181              sense = rpmvercmp(aR, bR);
   182          }
   183      }
   184  
   185      return sense;
   186  }

That is, rpmEVRcmp() does not exercise quite the same logic as
rpmVersionCompare().

Prepending zero serial was wrong anyway.
