Prelink not installed/enabled

I read in the release notes that prelinking is enabled by standard in FC1.
I've just upgraded my RH9 machine to FC1 and I cannot find any evidence of
the prelink RPM being installed and the /etc/sysconfig/prelink file does not
exist.
Am I right in assuming that prelinking is only standard if you do a fresh
install as opposed to an upgrade?
My next question then, do I just issue a 'yum install prelink' and then set up
prelinking myself?
I once used prelinking on a Gentoo system following these instructions:
http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/prelink-howto.xml
I'm guessing I can just follow those instructions (minus the Gentoo-specific
stuff) and just basically issue a 'prelink -afmR'.
Please could someone let me know if I'm way off the mark on this one?!
My last question: will the installation of prelink create my
/etc/sysconfig/prelink file or will I need to make one myself? If I do need
to make my own, could someone please post an example of theirs?
Thanks,
Tim
