Yes - this 5.0.1 RHN Proxy release does address this issue for RHEL 5 
clients using RHN Proxy, with custom channels. I think you are on the cc 
and so should have got the email notification of the bug being resolved.

Right now, today, no. The automated test suites that the Satellite QE 
team uses does not cover this area of the RHN Proxy product. More and 
more of the product though is getting integrated into the test suites 
over time, so hopefully well before RHEL 6 comes out RHN Proxy will 
indeed be covered with such automated general regression type testing. :)
