This is ugly. People will be banging SGI's doors for a RedHat installer again,
and I could very well understand, that they wouldn't want to go through that
again and drop supporting XFS installers/anaconda for RedHat. After all the
SGI-XFS people should concentrate on kernel matters, not on anaconda.

So people using XFS and RedHat in production will have to stay with 7.3 unless
SGI guys sacrifice their time again (for my personal benefit, I admit that I
hope they will). :(
