We would *greatly* appreciate it if you could report this bug
upstream, pointing to the commit and just asking if upstream is aware
of the issue, and intends on fixing it, and if the proposed patch is
suitable or completely unacceptable for some reason.

In Ubuntu, we do carry patches against Debian and/or upstream sources,
but we really want to try and keep that delta to a minimum, and ensure
that such fixes find their way into upstream eventually and over time,
so that our delta does not increase uncontrollably.

The Ubuntu package is built from the very recent Cobbler 2.1 GA
release.  No need to build, though, as a subsequent email from you
confirms you found that I have uploaded this fix already.

:-)  Welcome!

You bet.  Thanks for your contributions, testing, re-testing, and
finding patches.  Cheers!
