Is there any special reason for that, like critical bugfixes or security updates? See https://wiki.mageia.org/en/Updates_policy

You can update them yourself, it's pretty simple. Check viewtopic.php?f=41&t=5530
Instead of rpmbuild --rebuild you want to rpm -ihv the src.rpms - but do that as normal user, NOT as root!!!
Then edit the .spec files and update the version in there, and get the new tarballs, put them under SOURCES folder and build all three packages.
