It makes more sense to call it F14 than F13.90 because that is what it is, even
if in a prerelease state. I prefer over 'rawhide' as its slightly more precise
in case it's near switchover and someone might be pulling from mirrors that
haven't switched yet. Sticking the string 'rawhide' in there somewhere might be
a good idea. But I noticed that updates don't replace /etc/issue by default.
You get an rpmnew file, so changing the text that isn't grabbed externally
(using \ codes) probably won't happen in the cases where people might be
confused.
