That's another reason not to have this patch in the kernel ;)
I don't know about Fedora, but Ubuntu's bug reporter got a lot better with 11.10 betas. The other day it detected i915 GPU hang, collected all files and successfully reported the bug!
The only catch - it did not properly capure the i915_error_state (all zeros), which in fairness, might not be the tool's fault. That and it might need to be made a little more subtle / less annoying.
