I would. :)

For a good portion of their pre-release development cycle, the RHEL5 and
FC6 development trees were one in the same, the only difference being
the config options the respective kernels were built with. Of course,
they diverge from there once branched, but they actually *are* build
from the same sources and hell, even some of the same binaries, for at
least a while.
