It does, but I had many errors in the definition.  Again, apologies.  I
shouldn't send emails that late, haha.  This method should read:

 --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
 (define* (get-version tag #:key prefix suffix delim)
   (define delim-rx (regexp-quote (or delim ".")))
   (define prefix-rx (or prefix "[^[:digit:]]*"))
   (define suffix-rx (or suffix ".*"))
   (define version-char-rx
    (string-append "[^" delim-rx "[:punct:]]"))

   (define tag-rx
    (string-append "^" prefix-rx "(" version-char-rx "+("
                   delim-rx version-char-rx "+)*)" suffix-rx "$"))
   (and=> (string-match tag-rx tag)
          (cut match:substring <> 1)))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

With the fixed method above:

scheme@(emacs-guix)> (get-version "8")
$16 = "8"
scheme@(emacs-guix)> (get-version "1.4.0rc1-450-g2725ef99d")
$17 = "1.4.0rc1"

But, we still get:

scheme@(emacs-guix)> (get-version "1.4.0-rc1")
$18 = "1.4.0"

which leads us to what you talked about in your other message.

This should be:
        (and (ref? ref)

Sorry, another typo I missed.  See above.
