That would be excellent, because it feels awkward installing stuff that doesn't pass the regression tests, as all our
newlinux boxes will be rh7.3. 
But right now in our apps we're not relying on the time being right (isn't that the issue?) only the years...

If it's a simple fix, i think we should include that in the next 7.2.X .
