According to my /var/cache/yum/development/package directory we've 
been through a few updates of this package;

-rw-r--r--  1 root root 3216748 Sep  3 07:56 dev-3.11-1.i386.rpm
-rw-r--r--  1 root root 3216570 Sep  1 08:21 dev-3.9.2-1.i386.rpm
-rw-r--r--  1 root root 3215706 Aug 27 23:20 dev-3.9.1-1.i386.rpm
-rw-r--r--  1 root root 3170751 Aug 26 20:29 dev-3.9-1.i386.rpm
-rw-r--r--  1 root root 3167108 Aug  3 23:24 dev-3.8.3-1.i386.rpm

so we should have crossed this bridge already.  If I'm not the only 
one who is seeing this ( Am I ...anyone else ?) then I suspect 
there's a buglet in the scriptlet.
