This was fixed in 1.4.2.

At compile time, we work out if your system is affected. So if Dag's  
system is not affected, you won't get the patch.

Probably best to compile the plugins yourself. The key line to look  
for during ./configure is "Checking for redhat spopen problem".  
However, we only do a configure check if uname -r matches: egrep "\.EL 
(smp)?$", so if the line does not appear, please let me know what  
your uname -r output is.

This is still an issue with Red Hat (something to do with their  
pthread implementation), but I don't know if an official fix has been  
released by them.
