multiple packages provide perl(UNIVERSAL)?

So there I was, innocently packaging up SUPER (BZ205036), when I ran a
repoquery on one of its requires...

[root at zeus ~]# rpmquery --whatprovides 'perl(UNIVERSAL)'
perl-5.8.8-5
perl-UNIVERSAL-moniker-0.08-3.fc5
perl-UNIVERSAL-require-0.10-1.fc5
perl-UNIVERSAL-exports-0.05-1.fc5

Is it just me, or should the provides perl(UNIVERSAL) be filtered from
all packages except the base perl package?  (It's quite possibly just
me.)
