 Understood, Jim, thanks.  I've looked at this now, and am told that the
 binutils and glibc patches have recently gone into FC6, all the FC6 binary
 RPMs have been rebuilt with --hash-style enabled, and we don't have to do
 anything to enable it when building our own binaries under FC6.  Will
 leave this bug open until I've verified that it's present in our build,
 but it looks like we don't need to do anything to get the benefit here.
