Red Hat has worked it out and no longer has that symlink. It's the symlink that makes it dangerous: previously RH skated round it, but a lot of users borked their system that way. Even without that problem though, telling mainframe users to unpack the source into /usr/src is silly: what happens when it's mounted read-only? -- Cheers John.
