I just tried to upgrade Fedora 12 to 13 on a different machine, and had
exactly the same experience - the post-install crashed on nethack, and I
had to jump through all the same hoops to fix the situation afterwards.
So this is definitely not a fluke (bad sector, bad memory, cosmic ray, or
any other of the usual "explanations" for flukes).

I guess this teaches me a lesson - I should not install nethack on new
machines. It's not as if I actually have time to play it ;-)
