I hadn't heard about this directory, but i've been told that the profiles
files take precedence over the non-profile versions, and that the profile
versions are created and maintained by the GUI tools (redhat-config-network),
etc.

What version of RedHat are you running, by the way?

The question I don't have the answer to is, if you have any files in 
the profiles directory, are all the files under /etc/sysconfig/network
ignored?  For example, if the following state exists, will eth0 ever get
configured?

/etc/sysconfig/network/ifcfg-eth0 exists
/etc/sysconfig/networking/profiles/default/ifcfg-eth0 does not exist
/etc/sysconfig/networking/profiles/default/ifcfg-eth1 exists
