It would have to be a configure option, since it's certainly
still built with RHN support. As such, I'm not sure it's worth it.

Bill, maybe a configure option to build for RHEL or FC _would_ be
reasonable? I mean, the up2date package contains many RHN components
that are not appropriate for FC and in some cases are quite confusing;
such as people thinking they still have to register with RHN. Is it not
possible to strip all RHN components from the Fedora build of up2date?
