(Get the code!)
Fix committed just means that a change has been made that hasn't yet made it into the repos - when it is the status should change to Fix released.
What is unclear, in the absence of ANY comment from any devs in the last several weeks (since Chris Coulson on 10-04-09) is WHY the committed fix has not been released yet. There have been several updates to glib2.0 since the fix was supposedly committed, and none of them have included the fix.
The similar bug #401446 has been marked Fix released for some time, which may account for the lack of interest from the devs.
The fact of the matter is that for some of us, using amd64 Ubuntu 9.10 (or Lucid), the desktop positions of symlinks to folders on other partitions are NOT being restored on re-start or re-boot. This regression happened when a fairly major change was made in Nautilus, as I remember, and it may be that the fix adopted (in Gnome) missed this particular case. In any case, it's annoying that the regression has persisted so long.
