It'd be nice to get a definite answer from the anaconda/yum crowd.

Well, that -PAE at the things for users of RPM Fusion a lot harder, 
because they are used to "yum install kmod-foo" to get the kernel-module 
"foo" installed; in the future they have to either use kmod-foo or 
kmod-foo-PAE depending on what kernel they use.

Sure, that's not directly a Fedora problem. But it makes things more 
complicated for Fedora users. Which imho not only is the wrong direction 
-- it's wrose for the fame of Fedora, as people don't really 
differentiate between Fedora and add-on repos. That's why I'd be glad if 
we could get rid of the "-PAE"...
