Actually it was and old init script (/etc/init.d/yum) from an older
package which was not removed by some upgrade. Installation of the
package on a fresh system is not affected by this bug. We could even
close the bug IMHO.

If you really want to provide an upgrade path for cases like mine, you
could maybe just disable the executable bits for /etc/init.d/yum if
present, and warn the user that he has an old version floating around.
Not sure if it is worth the effort, tho.
