Statement: Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4 is now in Production 3 of the maintenance life-cycle, https://access.redhat.com/support/policy/updates/errata/, therefore the fix for this issue is not currently planned to be included in the future updates. This was addressed in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 and 6 via https://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2011-0927.html and https://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2011-1189.html. A future kernel update in Red Hat Enterprise MRG may address this flaw. From the reporter: "If you have integrated this patch (which you should!), you should also integrate that one: http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=243b422af9ea9af4ead07a8ad54c90d4f9b6081a This relaxes the check, since it turns out that glibc does rely on changing the signal code for async IO."
