I tried (see the url), but the @rpm5.org bug system is rather awkward  
and fragile.

What is a proper comment anyways?

Please do. and if you send me a toy srpm reproducer, then I
will wire up into rpm's "make check". You can easily add too,
just check in a tests/foo*.srpm, that will automatically be rebuilt
and installed, which should exercise obvious flaws.

No matter what: RPM_I18NSTRING_TYPE needs to Die! Die! Die!

A data type that sometimes is a scalar, and sometimes is an array,
is no useful data type imho.

I know several ways to eliminate RPM_I18NSTRING_TYPE with
no loss of functionality if I extend arbitrary tag permitted
characters. But I cannot make a PLD change for you.
