I thought putting it in a post didn't work because the rhnreg happened first,
so any packages installed via the activation key caused problems at that
stage.

I also (still) think disabling them that way is just setting yourself up for
problems later.  Next time you upgrade centos-release, are you not setting
yourself up for another sed?  Or does rpmnew save you?
