This is fixed at the CMPI 1.0 level in sblim-cmpi-devel 1.0.6 which was
released today. CMPI 2.0 headers were also released today, and are
available in the sblim-cmpi-devel 2.0.0 package. As far as when the distros
will pick up either of these releases I'm unsure, aside from RHEL 6.0 which
should be picking up the new 2.0 headers.
