My version is <http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?msg=57;filename=0002-md-deal-with-merge_bvec_fn-in-component-devices-bett.patch;att=1;bug=604457> and RH's very different patch for RHEL 5 is <https://bugzilla.redhat.com/attachment.cgi?id=342638&action=diff&context=patch&collapsed=&headers=1&format=raw> Our bug log is at <http://bugs.debian.org/604457>.
