I figured out dashes are not allowed in the version number, at least 
according to this:
http://docs.fedoraproject.org/drafts/rpm-guide-en/ch09s03.html

I was able to build an RPM by:
   extracting the tar.gz,
   changed the version in the spec file to _rc2 from -rc2,
   changed the bz2 in the spec file to gz,
   copied the spec file to ~/,
   renamed the directory to _rc2 from -rc2,
   tar.gz the directory back up copy it to rpmbuild/SOURCES, and
   rpmbuild -bb sqlgrey.spec
