Thanks for including the upstream bug URL, CVS commit, and patch. The patch seems trivial enough, but we'll review it in more depth during the RHEL4U3 development cycle, and update the bug with a status update at that time. Thanks again. Note to whoever takes assignment of this during U3: Check FC3/FC4/FC5 to see if this is present in those, and fix there as well. Push to upstream for 6.8.x branch if not already present also.
*** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 166068 ***
Devel ACK for U3.
