I'm not sure I see where that would be the case.  The guidelines I am reading
are from
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:Guidelines#Renaming.2FReplacing_Existing_Packages
and state, in part:

  Example: foo being renamed to bar, bar is compatible with foo, and the last
foo package release being foo-1.0-3%{?dist} with Epoch: 2; add to bar (and
similarly for all subpackages as applicable):

    Version: 1.0
    Release: 4%{?dist}
    Provides: foo = 2:%{version}-%{release}
    Obsoletes: foo < 2:1.0-4

Following that, the last ruby-shadow release was 1.4.1-15%{?dist}, with no
epoch.  I still believe that the proper obsoletes/provides entry is:

    Obsoletes:  ruby-shadow < 1.4.1-16
    Provides:   ruby-shadow = %{version}-%{release}

After looking more, obsoletes for ruby(shadow) are not needed at all, as a
newer ruby(shadow) provides will already be added as a matter of normal ruby
packaging process.  That name isn't changing, so the obsoletes is not required.

The important part that requires Obsoletes/Provides here is ruby-shadow, as
that is the old package we're replacing.

Am I missing something?
