I checked in the "obvious correct fix" to the spec file on CVS HEAD. I
can't test it though, not having convenient access to a RedHat-ish system
these days. I'll leave it for Anthony or one of the other 2.3.4 release
folks to backport it for the 2.3.4 release since that branch is closed.
(The first date should have a year of 2004.)
