What is the #prelink# stuff for?

Hi Folks,
I was cleaning my mess in my filesystems and I came across
a few #prelink# file and need to ask what to with these files.
I have:
/usr/lib/libgnomeui-2.so.0.1000.0.#prelink#.Hoth6j
/usr/lib/libgnomeui-2.so.0.1000.0.#prelink#.6kdQ3D
/usr/sbin/edquota.#prelink#.BxAQFF
/usr/bin/ktalkd.#prelink#.DMTn4f
/usr/bin/krfb.#prelink#.p2u2gp
/usr/bin/knewstickerstub.#prelink#.X0ybM8
/sbin/quotacheck.#prelink#.YZqcuk
I have to keep the following:
lrwxrwxrwx /usr/lib/libgnomeui-2.so.0 -> /usr/lib/libgnomeui-2.so.0.1000.0.#prelink#.Hoth6j
Because this one is used by gnome to allow users to log into
the gnome console, I believe. The rest of them does not appear
to have any depenencies on them as far as I know.
Also, when I did a 'yum update', invariably I get some *.rpmnew
files so what do I need to do with these as well? Can I toss
them out without any consequences?
Kind regards,
Dan
