As Jeff commented in another posting, selinux policy could be an 
influencing factor. Out of curiousity, I booted with selinux=0 and tried 
to install the yum cached rpm and it installed successfully.

Filing a bug referring to selinux interferring with pre and post scripts 
is probably a reasonable place to file this bug against.
