I strongly disagree... we'll need to at least rebuild them, since Fedora 
might be using different versions of certain libraries. They are most 
likely going to go 2.6 pretty soon, which will introduce issues since WBEL 
is a 2.4 kernel and I don't see RedHat going 2.6 for RHEL, so neither will 
WBEL.
