Paul,
Thanks for the detail. Can you verify on 6.6 (or previous) that
installing the 6.6 (non-patched) version of redhat-rpm-config also
causes the defaults to be SL-5 incompatible? There are several relevant
bugzillas for the redhat-rpm-config 'security' update, but probably the
most relevant one is 1122100 ( direct link
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1122100 ). This is upstream
of SL, and apparently it is intentional, and so you'll need to file a
bugzilla with redhat (or continue use the workaround you already found).
