I have replaced the original patch for this problem with a much simpler patch. The actual patch can be found in bugzilla http://bugzilla.ganglia.info/cgi-bin/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=188 . I have also changed the backport proposal in the 3.1 STATUS file. If somebody could review this patch and vote on the backport, it would be greatly appreciated.
