1. But have those fixes been applied in the Fedora packages? At least 
NetworkManager is now failing to build due to this "feature" having been 
rushed in just before the freeze, so that's at least one package which 
didn't get fixed in Fedora yet.
2. GNOME and freedesktop.org form only a small part of the Fedora package 
collection.

I really don't see why this change can't at least wait for F14! Breaking the 
build of half of the distro the day of the feature freeze is completely 
unacceptable. The change should get reverted for F13 and put into Rawhide 
after F13 gets branched.

(I still oppose the feature altogether, but postponing it to F14 would at 
least give packagers time to fix their packages.)
