I enabled it by myself...

If you'd like to get more widespread testing,
try suggesting Fedora project to add the tuning
to /etc/sysctl.conf (or something like that).
Maybe fedora-devel-list:
http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
Note that they have antispam on that list which requires
that email address found on From: header field must be
subscribed to the list or otherwise your email is
devnulled.
