fixed upstream. master: d4a80dbe52158f204e78afea742fc3322bbc65e5 d082b64b7b17ceee5fe3e2d7d9140b100ee4ea59 ipa-2-2: b7a7b4cb5e2a5c52fc132e5e2053954829e1be3f 62dc232e3f9d58f8f3bd8f16715f3afcb0bf44ca What you'll see is a separate attribute on output with the value in hex. This will appear in hosts, services and on the cli in the cert commands that display serial number (cert-request, cert-show and cert-revoke).
verified and automated tests fixed :: <snip> Serial Number: 8 Serial Number (hex): 0x8 </snip> version: ipa-server-2.2.0-9.el6.x86_64
