Using 5.4 4-29 nightly and an updates.img with all .py files the 5.3 final anaconda in there, the 'Unqualified exec not allowed in function "run"' error goes away. Bisecting pinpoints the cause to the following commit: "Ignore a subset of parted errors that are not critical (#455465).": http://git.fedorahosted.org/git/?p=anaconda.git;a=commitdiff_plain;h=c4c13840cdf3d6127ea1f22b8d14b1360b301f87 I can confirm that reverting this commit (and the typo fix commit for it), fixes this. Chris, that commit is yours so I'm assigning this to you.
This should be fixed in anaconda-11.1.2.172-1.
