Heh.

IMO, we should see if there's a way to work around their bug since
4.1.25 is a standard for certain OS distros out there (RHEL [AE]S 3
for instance).  If there isn't, or it isn't easy, then calling it a bug
in their lib is fine and we can just note it in the FAQ.

I wouldn't spend too much time on this since it's a known bug in the lib.
