Description of problem:
two seperate systems, running RH Linux 7.1, get core dumps trying to
rebuild XFree86-4.1.0-0.20.0.src.rpm; from either rpm --rebuild 
XFree86-4.1.0-0.20.0.src.rpm or rpm -ba XFree86.spec.

-v+ yields no useful information.

gdb -c core yields:
[root@geisha /root]# gdb -c core

This GDB was configured as "i386-redhat-linux".
Core was generated by `/usr/lib/rpm/rpmb -ba --verbose --verbose --
/usr/src/redhat/SPECS/XFree86.spec'.
Program terminated with signal 11, Segmentation fault.
#0  0x4012bf44 in ?? ()

Please, spare me suggestions as to sig11; or pointers to the sig11 faq; or
suggestions to check my hardware; or ... One system, I could believe, as
its a frankenputer and hasn't been stable since adding the NVIDIA drivers;
but the other was a fresh install/patch and yielded a core error in the
EXACT SAME PLACE.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.acquire XFree86-4.1.0-0.20.0.src.rpm
2.rpm --rebuild XFree86-4.1.0-0.20.0.src.rpm or rpm -ivh
XFree86-4.1.0-0.20.0.src.rpm and rpm -ba XFree96.spec
3.
	

Actual Results:  [root@geisha /root]# rpm -ba -vv
/usr/src/redhat/SPECS/XFree86.spec 
Segmentation fault (core dumped)

Expected Results:  was expecting failed dependencies and a night of staring
at the spec file and/or downloading src.rpms to fulfill them; was hoping it
would compile and make rpms cleanly, so I could toast my system by installing.
