Indeed, https://bugzilla.fedora.us/show_bug.cgi?id=1289 for anyone
that's too busy to look for it and wants the direct link. :)

Note 1: John Dalbec already built the packages the other night and was
looking to get someone with more webspace that he has available to
post them so QA can begin.  I haven't seen any comments in bugzilla
indicating that he found such a webspace donor, so if you can help, it
might be worth posting a comment in that bugzilla entry.

Note 2: Since John built these packages, an additional advisory was
released and it appears that the Slackware and Mandrake packages
incorporate this fix into their (identical) patches as well.  So John
might need to rebuild the packages before getting them posted and
folks can QA them.
