mine was a clean, fresh FC4t3.ppc installation,
and yes, only  "xscreensaver-base"  was here.

# yum -d0 list *screensaver*
Installed Packages
xscreensaver-base.ppc                    1:4.21-4               installed
Available Packages
xscreensaver-debuginfo.ppc               1:4.21-4               development
xscreensaver-extras.ppc                  1:4.21-4               development
xscreensaver-gl-extras.ppc               1:4.21-4               development


and yes, immediately after installing  "xscreensaver-gl-extras"  all was ok.
