chances are, that no-one has read it or triaged it.
There are currently 696 FC5 kernel bugs open, and 208 FC6 kernel bugs
open.
The number of people actively working through those bugs you can count
on one hand.

I'll get to it (unless someone else beats me to it) eventually.

Dave - Thanks for the feedback.
1) I was kind of worried that I had messed up the bugzilla posting with the
initially
incorrect subsystem diagnosis (Xorg vs kernel).
2) Is this something that can just be kicked upstream? I would (naively)
think a
discrepancy between /proc/bus/pci/devices and /proc/bus/pci/xx/* would be
a clear "OOPS" for whoever maintains the pci part of procfs, which I
wouldn't
think would be Fedora specific.
3) Am I correct in assuming that the referral to the upstream kernel folks
must be
done by a distro developer? That seems to be the gist of a message on
their
website.
