FYI, I've opened a bug for this against python-eventlet in Ubuntu.  The 
fix will hopefully be accepted to precise-proposed soon, and be ready 
for verification.  If someone who is interested in seeing this fixed can 
subscribe to the bug, and provide verification of the fix once it lands 
in -proposed, we can ensure the update hits 12.04 quick.  Thanks!
