I think I found it. The ifcfg-eth0 script had DNS1 and DNS2 lines in it.
If I run system-config-network after editing resolv.conf and save the
changes, it writes the new DNS lines to the ifcfg script, so that is
apparently where the hijacking originates. Hopefully with the new script
now it will hijack it with the correct data :-).
