No, probably not... anything in the scripts/ dir is trouble anytime ;)

Yep, this is with anaconda-10.0-5?  I had late breaking changes fixing
this stuff all up...

Should be.  Do you have the memtest86+ package in your tree or did you
lose it somehow?  If so, changing the scripts to run with sh -x and
tracing through the output is your best bet.  

And actually, are you on i386 or x86_64?  It seems this worked on the
final FC2 i386 tree but not x86_64.  Probably for a reason that would be
obvious to me if it wasn't nearly 11 pm
