Setting Context of Threads

Hello,

In this document, KaiGai outlines his SELinux Apache module.

http://code.google.com/p/sepgsql/wiki/Apache_SELinux_plus

Under the 'Internals' section, he notes that kernel versions > 2.6.28 have the capability to set an individual security context for each thread.

Has RedHat backported this capability to the 2.6.18 included with RHEL5? Or do we have to wait for RHEL6?

Thanks!
-Josh
