I've had this bug too using Gentoo and RHCS stable-2. After a bit of
investigation I've found the bug and the solution (a small, tiny,
trivial 2-line patch to fenced) I've already posted on RH bugzilla but
got no response.
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=512512

The patch worked out for me and cluster is in production from august.
Hope it helps.
