Once you've got that dropping in 1.6.6 was just a case of updating the tarball and dropping out one of the Red Hat patches which is fixed upstream (I actually did all this because I was trying to fix a problem with Mac partitions - it turned out only Red Hat derived sources exhibited the bug, even though the bug was really in upstream - seee #112937). I think the patches have rotted slightly (IIRC I did the patches against -32 and we're up to -33), but if there's any interest I'll happily update the patches in the ticket. -- Alex Kiernan, Principal Engineer, Development, THUS plc
