Comment 3 RHEL Program Management 2013-10-14 02:11:11 UTC

This request was not resolved in time for the current release.
Red Hat invites you to ask your support representative to
propose this request, if still desired, for consideration in
the next release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux.

Comment 4 Yongcheng Yang 2017-05-02 03:52:21 UTC

Closing this one as rhel-5 does (Bug 1008047 Comment 3) as NO upstream patch nor NO customer concerns this issue.

Feel free to reopen if there's any concern or we has patch to fix it.
