Thanks, I've opened https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=157931 (although non on the correct RH Linux version, since it is no longer active).

You can find some SRPMS at rpm.org, Jeff Johnson has a stash of them elsewhere. If you search through the rpm-devel list you should see announcements listing locations of rpms and srpms for testing.
