I have created an updated SRPM which reverses that part of the Woodcrest fixes that affect these Dells - if you are interested, the SRPM is at:
ftp://ftp.moving-picture.com/private/OpenIPMI-1.4.14-1.4E.17a.src.rpm
Fantastic - thanks for your explanation and the SRPM James. For the record, James appears to be completely correct and his SRPM fixes my problems here on CentOS 4.5 - woohoo!
His patch also applies cleanly to the current CentOS 5 package and fixes the problem there as well - a patched SRPM is available here for anyone else experiencing the problem:
http://www.openfusion.com.au/labs/dist/OpenIPMI-2.0.6-5.of.el5.3a.src.rpm
(and binary packages are in http://www.openfusion.com.au/mrepo/).
I've also reported the problem upstream:
