Unfortunately you didn't do this prior to F14 being released.  Therefor
these packages exist in Fedora 14 and cannot be removed.  The versions
of them that do exist were built using a GCC that could lead to problems
in the software.  It would be irresponsible to leave them as is.  I
don't really understand why a simple rebuild failed for these packages,
likely some movement in the buildroot contents.  But I need somebody
with more knowledge of the code base to attempt the build and translate
the error.
