This is a known bug that's been fixed recently. See
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=100420.

Apparently there's a patch that fixes it, that was applied to the
"rawhide" development version yesterday. Whether that means it will get
into FC3, or whether there's an update coming, I don't know.
