Hm, I just saw (20081027 install):

Installing bash-3.2-28.fc10.x86_64
/bin/sh: error while loading shared libraries: libtinfo.so.5: cannot 
open shared object file: No such file or directory
warning: %post(bash-3.2-28.fc10.x86_64) scriptlet failed, exit status 127

in my rawhide anaconda install log too.

I made a note of it here: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=433579

because it seems like a transaction ordering issue.  Bash has a 
Requires(post) on /bin/sh, /bin/sh is provided by bash, which requires 
libtinfo.so.5, which is provided by ncurses-libs and needs to be 
installed first.  But ncurses-libs is getting installed after bash. 
Perhaps the circularity of the argument is giving rpm trouble.
