Tech ARP article on SP3 has been updated, should be out around 10 June 08. So this means that the SP3 available now is not official and the one which will be released at June will have a newer version of SP3 which has the fix. No point downloading and installing the current SP3.
Actually, the link acedriver posted should be the official RTM version of Service Pack 3. It is just not available for auto-update by Windows Update right now.
