I hope I fixed this last week; does 2.6.4-2 fix this for you?

* Thu Oct 29 2009 David Malcolm <dmalcolm at redhat.com> - 2.6.4-2
- "Makefile" and the config-32/64.h file are needed by distutils/sysconfig.py
_init_posix(), so we include them in the core package, along with their parent
directories (bug 531901)

Fourth time may be the charm :-)

BTW, please remember to give the version of the rpm you're running when
sending such emails.  I saw that you did in your bugzilla report (bug
533341) - thanks!

Hope this is helpful
