Kinda depends how you're setting your hostname and how your doing your
registration during the kickstart, but it should be fairly easy no
matter how you approach it. In my own builds, I set the hostname in the
%pre section and then register in the %post like this:
rhnreg_ks --profilename $HOSTNAME
p.s. Not sure if this is what you meant, but you don't really have to
re-register the systems just to change their profile names. You can edit
that part of the RHN website manually.

I'm currently arguing with a small part of a kickstart script that
joins, and updates the computers to the kickstart network. It works,
appart from the fact that it registers them as "localhost.localhost",
as opposed to their machine names.
The machines have the correct names when they reboot (that is, the
pick up the correct hostnames, and have the right ip addresses etc.),
but it means that I have to re-register them with RHN in order to
give them a sane name.
I had this as a %post script:
#!/bin/sh -
. /etc/sysconfig/network
hostname -v -- "$HOSTNAME"
which might do the trick.
Cheers,
