Probably yes. When this problem was posted for the first time (dont 
remmember if it was in fedora-test-list or fedora-devel-list) , the 
developers said that if needed , they'd ship FC2 with firewire disabled 
, but wanted to enable it again ASAP.. In this case , I believe that as 
soon as it has been tested a lot , it'll be pushed to the updates 
directory...
