Stuff off my people.redhat.com page is just scratch space I use for my
own purposes -- demos, builds, etc. *Definitely* don't trust content
from there as it's usually a clone of my (often broke) local git tree.
And often outdated. Speaking of which, I need to drop in a norobots file....
As for this OVAL, it appears to have been fixed on 18-SEPT:
https://git.fedorahosted.org/cgit/scap-security-guide.git/commit/RHEL6/input/checks/accounts_minimum_age_login_defs.xml?id=8e56c6960f71c1fed1cfa7e1fafed382ce2c1d87
Should be reflected in next RPM update
