Non public bug, probably as it's not against openSUSE.
If I can be added to CC I'll gladly provide all information and support I can.

Yeah.. was sure about that. Unfortunately all the 'proprietary' Novell products 
get a kind of bad treatment on openSUSE (It's somewhat better on
SLE).
- GroupWise -> if it works, great... if not... well
- Messenger. I just don't use it anymore. kopete or pidgin do the trick
- Novell Client NCL: a story on it's own. Will probably never work reliable 
(even though at the moment I got it to work on a Factory install...
woohoo... )
- Client Trust: yes.. a sad story if you use Border Manager. integrates with 
NCL, thus you already have the problem of NCL hardly ever being able to
be used. Plus: where is the x86_64 version???

Especially for NCL I had a lot of contact with the respective department. Lots 
of mails, ending up in no apparent actions (why not finally offer
repositories of the novell tools??? even if there are no src.rpm available)
