So far no reactie about the multicast packet loss......

I bumbed into this bug: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=880035

This looks the same as the problems I am suffering using oVirt 3.2: 
heavy multicast packet loss after some time.

This the bug affect oVirt 3.2 ovirt-node (2.6.1-20120228.fc18)?
Can anyone reproduce the problem (omping between 3 virtual nodes)?
