Bluetooth in F8 - known bug?

Along with some others using F8 and trying to associate a bluetooth mouse
it seems there maybe currently broken bluetooth in the latest kernel?

Although I was able to get an initial association with the BT mouse using
hidd --server --search as root and then pushing the reset button on the mouse
the mouse fails to associate again after rebooting unless hidd --connect
is used.

This is using a KDE desktop though the commands above should not depend on
which desktop is used.

I installed kdebluetooth and after trying many different tacks I eventually
got the mouse to associate but then it would not re-associate.

Checking the logs I see in /var/log/messages

This is looking like a kernel bug associated with bluetooth?

Does anyone have any current information on this and whether there is a fix
on the way?
