CentOS - Dec 2008 - system-config-network crash

I have been trying to get a EVDO modem to work with Centos 5 and earlier
this evening I used system-config-network to add it to the system.

Now when I try to run system-config-network again it crashes with the following
error.  Can anyone tell me how I can fix this?

Component: system-config-network
Version: 1.3.99.10
Summary: TBa9c752cb ConfPAP.py:85:initvars:IndexError: list index out of range

I got this to work again.  I had named the modem connection that I set up
"SaskTelCellular".  So I deleted the following files:

/etc/ppp/peers/SaskTelCellular
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-SaskTelCellular
/etc/sysconfig/networking/devices/ifcfg-SaskTelCellular
/etc/sysconfig/networking/profiles/default/ifcfg-SaskTelCellular

Now system-config-network runs again.  I wonder if the name SaskTelCellular is
too long or something?
