Golly I am impressed.
39 minutes after I posted bug 6103 tvignaud from mandrakesoft posted a patch 
to fix it.

I have tested it and it works fine (for me).
If anyone wants to try it, download the patch from 
http://qa.mandrakesoft.com/show_bug.cgi?id=6103 , save it as for example 
msec.patch.

Make a backup of the old file just in case you screw it up
cp /usr/lib/libDrakX/security/msec.pm /usr/lib/libDrakX/security/msec.pm.bak

Then apply the patch
patch /usr/lib/libDrakX/security/msec.pm msec.patch

(Note: It cautions about the patch ending in the middle of a line)

Works for me with drakxtools-9.2-16mdk  I do not know about earlier versions.

Nice to see the system works :-)
