Hello Shawn,
having hard time trying to apply the patch (git am / git apply [*] report's it's corrupted probably because my email client changing the spaces :().
In any case adding the added text section manually, re-diffing & rebuild works.
The string 'https://access.redhat.com/site/solutions/70464' could be probably noted in "link notation" so when viewing the HTML guide, there would be clickable link, but that's just a nitpick. Otherwise the change is OK.
ACK for the text add-on.
Thank you && Regards, Jan. -- Jan iankko Lieskovsky / Red Hat Security Technologies Team
[*] rpm -q git shows git-1.8.3.1-1.fc19.x86_64 on my system.

Hmm, odd. I'm on git 1.7.1-3 via RHEL 6.5. Re-ran `make content` to ensure things compiled correctly (they did) and pushed.
