Comment 1 James E. Leinweber 2006-07-24 14:03:26 UTC

This duplicates bug 191841, which has a much better discussion of the problem
and consequences.

Comment 2 Phil Moses 2006-07-24 15:44:46 UTC

Any yet, bug 191841 opened by a Redhat member stands and has not been resolved. 

Had it been resolved even in a fairly timely manner I would have not opened
another bug report. 

But it was not resolved and patches were released and productivity was affected
(all the while the initial bug remains unresolved.)
