Have you actually read the bug report? Your proposed patch opens a security hole
and doesn't really fix the issue (it's a very ugly and bad workaround)

Thought I had, but obviously I missed that part.

The problem you run into only happens when you are logged in as root, which is
not the norm on linux, thus only severity normal.

I had been seeing the problem when logged in as my user, not root.

The odd thing is that, after reverting the patch and rebooting, everything still seems to work. I was even able to start a root shell (su - in gnome-terminal), and disconnect and reconnect the VPN without problems.
