Thank you, this was and is useful advice. Five submitted so far: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=129601 (binutils) https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=129607 (gcc) https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=129034 (rpm) https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=129587 (redhat-rpm-config) https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=129589 (openssl) cheers, Lennert
