This will *BREAK* things, such as "redhat-release". Don't do it.
Migrate the installed packages to SL6 first, especially the
"*-release" packages.

Also, rip out "yum-rhn-plugin". This will turn off the attempts to
access the upstream RHN repositories.

It's a potentially nasty interaction: packages of the same name may
have subtle discrepancies, and tools that look for /etc/issue.net
contents will be confused at compilation time.
