The Fedora folks maintaining TeXLive have made the decision to use 
TeXLive 2011/dev as the basic TeXLive distribution. After problems like 
these, they re-released the 2010 distro for people to downgrade back to 
2010.

Ok. Thanks. I wasn't really sure what exactly was the source of the 
problem, and the TeXLive folks suggested this group would be a good 
place to start.
