I'm so glad to hear this. I submitted it on their cPanel Bugzilla in
hopes that it would be noticed and fixed.

http://bugzilla.cpanel.net/show_bug.cgi?id=2639

I don't know if anyone has looked at the report as it is currently
still unassigned, but it was probably just too difficult to
understand/believe.

But Marc, you rule, thanks for getting this noticed. auto_thaw
shouldn't be used (ever?).


Signed.
