This is probably a report re issues with the 2.4 kernel.  It gets 
confusing but SME5 is neither RedHat 7.0 or RedHat 7.1.  It is a mix of 
both.

SME5 uses RedHat 7.0/kernel 2.2.19-7.0.8 so as far as the kernel is 
concerned, SME5 is RedHat 7.0.  However _most_ of the installed rpms were 
chosen from RedHat 7.1 (those that are not kernel specific) so you end up 
with RedHat 7.0/2.2.19-7.0.8/7.1.

FYI, when implementing new rpms I try to find and install RedHat 7.1 rpms 
first, 7.0 rpms next, latest RawHide rpms if I can't find specific RedHat 
releases.  Lastly, find the source and build a rpm to work.
