Comment 13 Michal Luscon 2013-03-19 14:28:05 UTC
RHEL-5.10 (the next RHEL-5 minor release) is going to be the first
production phase 2 [1] release of RHEL-5. Since phase 2 we'll be
addressing only security and critical issues.

This one issue is tracked in RHEL-6 [2] therefore I am closing the bug as
WONTFIX.
