I looked into NM on F11 some more and, as far as I can see, the code in the 
patch as well as the GATEWAYDEV code in ifcfg-rh/reader.c is never executed.  
Looking at the differences between ifcfg-rh/* on F11 and F12, the code 
differences are extensive.  Someone more familiar with the current NM on F11 
may be able to figure out what is wrong but I consider that it is not worth my 
time.

I am satisfied that the patch fixes things on F12 (assuming the patch is 
accepted).
