that's more considered like a kludge to me ;)

Taking into account that RH8 is not really a new thing, we may get a fix here, 
if you guys may provide us access to a machine running that distro.

Otherwise we'd need to setup a VMware instance with it and dig into it. Since 
it's an issue that's not accurate for the distro, I'd suggest you guys provide 
us ssh access and we can have a quick fix on it.

But this is more a +0 task. We have more "urgent" issues. This would be only a 
time filler ;)
