Correct - the relevant 6.2 bug is this one:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=719945

The status is still ASSIGNED as of now so I think the patch has not been 
submitted to CVS yet (although Kamil referenced an upstream commit).

I've put the RHEL maintainer to CC so he can comment on the ETA of the 
RHEL fix.
