This bug need to be added into ovirt-node 6.5 erratum with TestOnly. We will check this bug again with RHEV-H 6.5 base image build, after verification with rhevh 6.5 base image build, we will change it to 'Verified' status. Now, change it back to ON_QA.
Setting to modifed, will be back to ON_QA once it is added to the erratum.

Hi Pavel, ah...I checked your errata just now, you can change it to REL PREP, If errata has been request Docs, not yet approved, we still can change it to REL PREP, no need to wait doc approved yet. FYI: http://wiki.test.redhat.com/ErrataWorkflow/ClosingErrata#FinalState Thanks Ying
syslinux errata RHBA-2013:16255 is REL_PREP now. syslinux packages will be shipped live into RHEVH channel directly. So this Testonly ovirt-node bug is fixed, and verified according to comment 16.
Double confirm for this bug. Syslinux errata RHBA-2013:16255 is SHIPPED LIVE - Closed now. Result: syslinux-4.02-8.el6.x86_64 & syslinux-extlinux-4.02-8.el6.x86_64 & livecd-tools-13.4.4-1.el6_5:1.x86_64 get shipped in RHEV-H channel. So the bug is fixed.
