Rawhide == development.

This is currently what will someday be FC5. If you look on the mirror
sites you will find a development tree that is what people refer to as Rawhide.
It is a term left over from the old Red Hat linux when there was an actual
Rewhide tree. Why they changed it with the introduction of Fedora is beyond me.
Everyone still refers to it as Rawhide.
