4636 - core dump seen when running distro_const build -p6 -r5 
slim_cd_101checkpoint.xml

Title: distro_const may coredump when running mkrepo in br-config

Description: The distribution constructor may coredump during the br-config
 finalizer script when running mkrepo. This occurs if the mountpoint associated
 with the build_area specified in the manifest exceeds 26 characters. 

Error Messages: 

==== br-config: Boot root configuration 

/usr/share/distro_const/mkrepo: line 51: 13909: Abort(coredump)

Stopping at br-arch: Boot root archiving 


Workaround: 
Change the mountpoint associated with the build_area to not exceed 26 
characters.

4586 - DC pause and resume functionality won't resume at any resumable step

Title: distro_const pause and resume functionality won't work if -r and -p
  are both used.

Description: If trying to use the resume and pause functionality on the same 
command
line, the distribution constructor will not allow the -r option to precede the 
-p option.
The distro_const will become confused and believe you have specified a resume 
step
that is invalid.

Error Messages: 
You must specify an earlier step to resume at.


Workaround: 
Specify the -p option before the -r option.
