Well, we have now RedHat Fedora Core 1, RedHat Enterprise Linux 3 and
RedHat Linux 9, so naming the last one redhat9 and the previous redhat3
would make too much confusion. So we now use the official abbreviations
RedHat uses theirself: rhl and rhel.

Well, if you change it then RPM will complain perhaps every time you
install something. I would not change it, leave it as rhl9 now that you
have upgraded the bootstrap package. New built binary packages will
use the correct name and RPm will no longer complain, I think.
