Not totally relevant to this thread, but relevant to repeating: since
the code is still GPLv2, if RedHat shares its code with me, I can still
redistribute freely, even though RedHat is not necessarily
redistributing to the general public.  RedHat can not prevent me from
redistribution even though I obtained the code under a paid support
contract.  (At that point RH has zero obligation to anybody who
downloads from me, of course.)
