OK. I missed that when prelink was called in /etc/cron.daily/prelink it
was pulling in extra options. So eventually prelink would have been run
correctly. I just did things wrong while trying to speed the process up.
(In the past not using -m worked, but I suspect that it was pretty close
to not working and things switched over the limit in F9.)

So this was all user error.

Thanks for the help.
