Linux RAID and bad sectors

Hi,
anyone knows if the kernel in FC5 or FC6 have/will have support
for hard disks with bad sectors in a Linux software raid setup?

Is there that kind of feature? Maybe with a patch?

I have 2 disk with 2 bad sectors each and I can no longer use
them for raid1 :(

Many thank
Oliver
