Yup, and I should also have thought of excluding that paragraph -- 
sorry!  I know it wasn't meant (or felt) for yum developers.

As for yum vs. yum-devel, I paused considering it a bit, and decided to 
go with yum-devel since this is a possible bug.  But I take it you'd 
rather have bug reports to yum, Seth?  Is yum-devel only for 
conversations among active yum developers?
