All the more reason for making this change now with a major version change
and early in the F18 release cycle rather than being forced to go through
this in a later supposedly minor update.

I don't think making this a runtime configuration is a good idea. Most
people only run either 2.2 or 2.4 but not both so having this in their
config is really unnecessary and makes things more complicated then it
needs to be.
Why not make this distinction in the spec file and include one of two
configuration files in the rpm depending on the release version? That way
F18+ users get a clean config for 2.4 and older version get a clean config
for 2.2.
