It looks like it's not necessarily related to rpm-libs in particular but only to the fact that the boost-devel and binutils-devel
rpms don't seem to be linking some files in /usr/lib64 correctly.  Running a yum update now and I'm experiencing the same issue as I
was and binutils-devel was one of the updates (I was hoping it was an update that was fixing the linking problem but it doesn't
appear to be the case).  After the binutils-devel update I had to relink the two .so files again and then strace the ldconfig that
was running to get it to core (should it do that or is that a bug?) so the yum update could move forward....now it's hung trying to
update valgrind but I don't know why.  I think I'm going to kill the yum update and run it again with some verbosity to see if I can
see where it's getting hung up.
