Would it be this commit that fixed this issue? commit 094972840f2e7c1c6fc9e1a97d817cc17085378e Author: Serge E. Hallyn <serue@us.ibm.com> Date: Sat Feb 23 15:23:33 2008 -0800 file capabilities: simplify signal check
I see stable was CCed on it, so I guess it will be included in the next point release, but distributions may want to apply it earlier.
