This request was evaluated by Red Hat Product Management for inclusion in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.7 and Red Hat does not plan to fix this issue the currently developed update.

Contact your manager or support representative in case you need to escalate this bug.

Comment 3 Cole Robinson 2011-10-14 21:02:40 UTC
Since adding this value is easy to revert (unlike adding 'scsi' for example), I don't think it's worth the effort at this point in rhel5 to patch the old code and hide this value. So closing this as WONTFIX for RHEL5
