That fix is only just into the STABLE code, so no, not in 6.1-RELEASE.
You could take the tip of STABLE, but if you have only a 6.0 based
system I know you are going to run into some backward incompatabililties.
As a matter of fact I dont believe the STABLE tip will even build on
RELEASE (something that I take issue with).

Sounds like its at least possible this is your problem, worth setting up a
system to test with I would say.

Good Luck,
