That's the FC3 binary with which FE4 development started. Its date is
14-Dec-2004.  It's older than the x86_64/ppc binaries, which were created
by a semi-mass rebuild on April 11th, and when i386 failed to build. 
Version and release of all builds ought to be the same, btw.

Because the old build logs have been removed. Much time has passed since
the report was filed.

Yes.

Request a build (e.g. of what you have in FE CVS) and have fun with
the build logs you will get.

IMHO the development repo is unimportant at this point in time. FC4 has
just been released. Build system resources ought to be spent on FE4
updates, some which may be important than other build requests.

The two of your packages failed for one arch. Hence the bug report.

Logs were provided by Seth and pointed to from within bugzilla. With
the build system changes weeks later, the logs were deleted.
