I guess I should have added that this affects the open source NTFS drivers
too. This isn't a black/white thing to do with proprietary vs open source
drivers - anything that Red Hat choose not to ship for whatever reason
(which they usually keep secret) is affected by it :/

One of the proposed goals for FC5 [1] is to provide to mechanism to package external kernel modules in a way that would keep them in sync and working together, so for GPL'ed kernel modules not include in the Fedora kernel or for modules where the proprietary vendor allows repackaging and redistribution this planned infrastructure could solve the problem
