Patch posted to anaconda-patches.
Discussed at 2013-03-27 blocker review meeting: http://meetbot.fedoraproject.org/fedora-blocker-review/2013-03-27/f19alpha-blocker-review-3.2013-03-27-16.01.log.txt . Accepted as a blocker per criterion cited in comment #2.
Can someone review Vratislav's patch and get it in the next anaconda build? It's been on the list since Tuesday. Be good to fix as many blockers as possible for the next build (and make sure there are no others behind them). Thanks!
(I see the same rescue backtrace with Alpha TC3 netinst.iso (anaconda-19.14))
