Sorry for the late reply.  I've run these tests in the past against
SLES11 (2.6.27 ?) back in January 2009 and this one passed from looking
at my logs.  I don't have that system around anymore to check the config,
etc.  I didn't see any obvious commit that would have broken it from a
quick look, do you have a test setup to do some debugging?  It will
take a little time for me to re-configure mine to run this test.
