there is nothing about the /etc/issue* files that guarantee that they
say *anything* about the red hat version of the host.  those files
contain whatever you want to be printed out before the login prompt

  /etc/issue:           on a local port
  /etc/issue.net:       for a network login

so while they *start* with version info, there's nothing that
says they must remain that way.
