the "WONTFIX" closure of bugzilla 88616 was already from
Fedora days (2004-04-05), so opening a new bug report is
unlikely to do much on its own.  (in fact, I don't know if
it's likely to do more than get closed as a duplicate)  Of
course, I don't speak for Fedora.

If a fix for this new RPM feature is included in Python (for
2.3.5 and 2.4) then I'd guess it's more likely to be added
as a patch for a subsequent 2.3.3 or 2.3.4-based Python
package, but again I don't speak for the Fedora developers.
