The OP was asking about files from the kernel package, so only kernel*
packages with FC3 in will get nuked with my example, and the kernel
packages do use capital FC3 tags predictably.  But you're right of
course that eyeballing autogenerated lists is a good idea before feeding
them to r[p]m   :-)

RPM is case sensitive, there is a big discussion going on about that on
the rpm-devel list at the moment in fact.
