Try verifying the package the file belongs to:

  $ rpm --verify --file /etc/rc.sysinit

If /etc/rc.sysinit doesn't show up as modified (a '5' in the third
column), it is the same as in the package. You can also verify it
via its MD5 checksum yourself. Run

  $ rpm --query --dump initscripts | grep rc.sysinit

and keep an eye on the MD5 checksum in the fourth column. Compare
it with the output of:

  $ md5sum /etc/rc.sysinit

Both should match.
