[Yum-devel] strange obsoleting with perl and perl-suidperl

rawhide is pushing perl 5.12, part of changes in new perl is removing 
perl-suidperl.

perl proper has:

http://cvs.fedoraproject.org/viewvc/rpms/perl/devel/perl.spec?revision=1.274&view=markup

# suidperl isn't created by upstream since 5.12.0 133
Obsoletes: perl-suidperl <= 4:5.10.1-118

However yum still ends up in trouble, when doing yum install perl:

->  Finished Dependency Resolution
Dependency Process ending
4:perl-suidperl-5.10.1-118.fc14.x86_64 from installed has depsolving problems
   -->  Package: 4:perl-suidperl-5.10.1-118.fc14.x86_64 (@rawhide/13)
   -->      Requires: perl = 4:5.10.1-118.fc14
   -->      Removing: 4:perl-5.10.1-118.fc14.x86_64 (@rawhide/13)
   -->          perl = 4:5.10.1-118.fc14
   -->      Updated By: 4:perl-5.12.1-123.fc14.x86_64 (rawhide)
   -->          perl = 4:5.12.1-123.fc14

Any ideas?
