I agree with you.  This is a *bug* known to upstream.  The CentOS bug
report should not have been closed based on the fact building was
successful by some people or under "certain" circumstances.  But I am
not the one who closed it ( have no such privilege anyway :-D ).

Yes, now it (closing the bug) is rationalized (after the fact).  ;-P
