The above behavior is correct.   The nomenclature "_fc6" really means 
"this OS has support for using yum repositories during installation", 
which was first
added for FC6.   Think of it as "fc6 compatible".

The easiest thing to do if you don't like what that kickstart file 
contains is ...

cobbler profile edit --name=foo --kickstart=/srv/mystuff/foo.ks
(and of course, run cobbler sync to apply that change to any systems 
that depend on it)
