A wise man once said that till such time as a bugreport is filed or
evidence to effect is shown, an issue is just a fragment of imagination
or a user induced issue they are too embarrassed to admit to. Given that
you made a wide sweeping statement that there were no usable rpms for
ganglia - I still think you don't think you what you are talking about.
I know of, and have used in the past, atleast 2 different set of rpms
that worked just fine. On the same platform as you mention, one of those
rpm sets having roots in what you hosted at EPEL / Fedora now.
To reconfirm the situation, I've just done a fresh C5 install, rolled in
epel and installed ganglia with no issues at all. If you want, I can
post a copy of the vm image used to run this test, the ks.cfg used, and
the puppet manifest that did the deployment.

Its an often used term in the admin / infrastructure circles to indicate
if a person has used a technology or app in conditions that would have
stressed it or used a near complete feature set.
