Whilst I see your point, it is likely to be complicated to work out what
input to RTAI from a LinuxCNC that thought there was a different realtime
system in action caused the problem. And wherever the problem is it seems
to be in a version of RTAI that RTAI do not support and that LinuxCNC
barely understand.

This was a strange result from a badly configured build from source, so not
a typical User experience. My inclination is to ignore it unless it happens
again.
