RPM binaries handle certain command-line options via popt aliases; see
/usr/lib/rpm/rpmpopt-*.  It very well may be a popt bug...I'm not sure
how much exercise that particular code path gets....

Yeah, looks like the (new?) maintainer is making some invalid build
assumptions (such as assuming "git describe" will work, thereby
breaking builds from tarballs) that will take some time to work
through.  I will hammer through it eventually, but at the moment I
have too much other stuff going on to spare the cycles to do it myself
just now.  Maybe someone else will beat me to it.  :-)

It may or may not still be there, but I pulled it from:

https://storage.googleapis.com/google-code-archive-downloads/v2/code.google.com/pdsh/pdsh-2.29.tar.bz2
