hm, I think I had the same problem with 1.4.0 ...I modified the ./configure 
script so it sets the vendor release correctly

PVM=`echo $PACKAGE_VERSION | cut -d . -f 2`
  if test "x$PVM" = "x"; then
          PVM="0"
  fi
  PVP=`echo $PACKAGE_VERSION | cut -d . -f 3`
  if test "x$PVP" = "x"; then
          PVP="0"
  fi

(I put this right below "PVMAJOR=`echo $PACKAGE_VERSION | cut -d . -f 1`")

Not sure if I missed a package or so, no idea why this problem appeared, so 
this  was just a working fix for me (:

Hope that helps
