You're right, it is still not there (at least in -rc5 version). Last
time I asked, I have been answered they are waiting for the
standardisation of the pass-thru commands.

Well, my idea was to keep this bug open until Bas Zoetekouw confirms me
hddtemp is working correctly with the kernel patch. Actually SATA is
well supported by hddtemp.

You could try to reassign it to the kernel package, but I doubt the 
kernel team will add some "random patches" to the kernel tree, even if the 
pass-thru patch is working correctly for months now.
