Filing a bug report against Fedora because its bleeding edge open source filesystem doesn't work with a piece of commercial Windows-centric software strikes me as a tad out of line.  This forum, though, with an appropriately titled thread so that an interested user is likely to find it in a search, as it is now, is appropriate.  Anyone disagree?

Those who have paid Symmantec for a recent copy of Ghost should in fact beat on them for a fix--in an appropriate venue for reporting *Symmantec* bugs.  Whether they will find it in their interest to do so remains to be seen.
