It doesn't seem to be enabled:

In the meantime, I found out that I can't boot what is listed as rescue
system.  When I try to boot that, it fails being unable to mount the
root fs.  I'm guessing that's because it doesn't load the driver for the
raid controller.  The relevant entry in grub.cfg doesn't specify an
initrd.

Since this is Fedora 18, I guess I can't even make a bug report about
this?  Has that been fixed on F19?  It should be fixed even for F18
since other ppl running yum update may run into the same issue when they
are preparing to upgrade.
