I guess that's possible, but I don't think we can really anticipate all the scenarios that a user can shoot themselves in the foot. In the same line of argument you could say a user installed php but decided to rename the php binary :-) I'm going to just commit the fix to the spec file and leave it at that. If this causes problems down the road we'll re-visit... unless of course you plan to re-write the code without using the ctype_* functions.
