Just FYI, I sucked the rpm packages from
http://people.redhat.com/mitr/sha256-rpm/f9/ and installed them on my
builders.  There were depenency problems with gdb and net-snmp, which
I removed, but after install things are fine and I can continue to do
mock builds of rawhide packages.  That may not be helpful to you but
it did at least get me building things again.

Mock still works on F9 just fine; you simply can't use it to build
things for rawhide.  I guess it's a balancing act between that and
potentially breaking systems.
