 From what I can tell, that issue has been fixed. I'm running the  
latest kernel from Rawhide (2.6.31.1-56.fc12) and it works fine.

Plymouth is the component responsible for recording those messages in / 
var/log/boot.log when the root fs becomes writeable. You should check  
if plymouthd is running.

Packages:

  kernel-PAE-2.6.31-0.125.4.2.rc5.git2.fc12.i686
  plymouth-0.8.0-0.2009.29.09.7.fc12.i686
