Doesn't ring a bell, and it doesn't show up on the SATA bug tracker list..
(https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/showdependencytree.cgi?id=FCMETA_SATA)
Though that's fallen a bit by the wayside in recent times, so there may
be SATA bugs that aren't listed on there.

It won't hurt to file a new one.
