IBM believes that this failed QA on RHEL 4.6 Snap1, did something get forgoten 
in that release?

Hello IBM,
It appears this fix was not included with RHEL 4.6 Snap1. It should be
included with the next snap. The version that includes this is 4.6.2-6 and
above.

Thank You

If you're subscribed to beta channels for 4.6, it should the latest up2date beta
package up2date-4.6.2-7.el4*.
