This isn't the first time it has been suggested that redhat-release should
remain present. Personally, can't see why it would be a bad thing to drop
in a hardlink between whitebox-release and redhat-release for final.
Didn't do it during the RC phase to catch as many internal references as
possible because internal references was likely something that would need
de-trademarking. So unless anyone can come up with a good reason NOT to,
a link will go in the final release.
