I would disagree. If I were a paying customer, I would expect all package 
names to match. If nothing else, it makes you feel like the toolchain that is 
in RHEL actually did something with the package in case you have to rebuild 
it yourself at some point. It also makes you feel that somebody actually 
spent a couple of minutes with it. 

I can also envision somebody asking an admin why they put FC6 files on their 
installation and how that affects support. Even though there is a KB article, 
they still have go look for it and have to prove it to other people. That is 
really a needless exercise.

Same thing with Fedora. I can envision people thinking that there is a failed 
upgrade somehow that left FC6 files after the install. Again, a needless 
exercise.
