How does one update the fedora-release to rawhide?
rpm -Uvh --force

Why do you need to use --force there?
Because "rawhide" < "5" in rpm ordering.
A better way to deal with this would be to give the rawhide package a
_version_ between
5 < version < 5.90
The rationale is that 5.90 will be the first test release of FC6 so
the version string should stay below this one. Maybe 5.5 would be a
good indicator of where the user is when using rawhide.
Perhaps we could treat it like other packages in /development. That is,
make it 5.90 until FC6 test 1 goes out then bump it to 5.91 until test2
is out, etc... and within the package have /etc/fedora-release actually
contain "Fedora Core test 1 of release 6 (rawhide)"
Just an idea.
