You should never be doing that. When there aren't mass rebuilds there can
be lots of packages with fcxx, where xx is from a previous release. Unless
something needs to be different for the latest version you can use the
same build for both. This provides a slight saving on resources used
distributing the packages.

There are tools for finding packages that aren't in your current repo,
such as package-cleanup --orphans. You can use yum downgrade for cases
where updates from a previous release are ahead of the current release.
