I dug a little deeper and found that the ifcfg-eth0 in default had the wrong

started to work. I really don't know why the ifcfg-eth0 script in
/etc/sysconfig/networking/profiles/default
is different from that in
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts.
In fact, I really don'tunderstand why there are two. Why not symbolic links?
Was this installation an upgrade? The FC5 installer creates only the
one file in /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts, and that appears to be
sufficient. If you (re)configure with system-config-network, there
will be two additional hard links to that same file:
3290919 ./sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0
3290919 ./sysconfig/networking/devices/ifcfg-eth0
3290919 ./sysconfig/networking/profiles/default/ifcfg-eth0
It looks like you got a broken setup with some files left over
from a previous installation.
