Good! :-)

Please read the list archives; I answered this question yesterday
several hours before you asked. :-)

No.

Maybe because it was intentionally not a target of our QA team?
If you had read my earlier email, you would have discovered the
reasons. They are valid, and the only promise I can make you about
an update to fix this is that if we release an updated linuxconf, it
will not be to fix this bug in a module which we do not support.
It might or might not get fixed collaterally if we release a fix for
other bugs.
The linuxconf core appears to be stable on 5.2. That was all we
could do; we had enough to do to make that be the case without
getting to the modules. As we are able to certify modules as
working, they will normally be installed by default. We already
do that for treemenu in Red Hat Linux 5.2.
