I'm with Chris on this one. I don't think RedHat are making BZ entries
private to hide bugs from "competitors". I suspect it's because most of
the bugs are logged by customers and contain private customer data that
the customer would prefer not to be made public.

In an ideal word RedHat would make a new public bug with just the
description and no customer data but suspect that that would be
impractical.

If you really want to know about a bug; call your TAM or log a support
case. I'm sure will give provide the details you require.
