I didn't think it would be. I posted the same info to CentOS-dev but
haven't seen a response there, but I don't expect they will have a
problem fixing it either.
The surprise to me is that RH doesn't seem to intend to respin 5.3. I
would be pretty unhappy if I were paying for this stuff and effected,
and unsettled if paying and not affected.
