Yes, smf-sav has been in use here on fc6:

sendmail-8.13.8-2.i386.rpm
milter-greylist-2.1.12-3.fc6.i386.rpm

with no apparent problems.

I've been worried a little by another statement in smf-sav readme:

---------------------8<---------------
IMPORTANT: make sure that libmilter is compiled with
BROKEN_PTHREAD_SLEEP defined. If this symbol is not defined, libmilter
will use sleep() in signal-handler thread, which may cause various
program misbehaviors, including coredumps.
--------------------->8---------------

but it seems to work with the standard sendmail binary for fc6.i386.
