Yep, confirmed. Dennis sometimes makes minor tweaks required to get the
somewhat arcane buildsystem to work -- part of the process verifies the
kickstart files under RHEL 6, so the kickstart needs to parse as valid for
both the current kickstart _and_ for that release.

Feedback appreciated! Because of an outstanding bug with SE Linux and
cloud-init, there will be a one-minute delay before you can log in unless
you boot with user-data like this:

#cloud-config
cloud_init_modules:
 - bootcmd
 - write-files
 - growpart
 - resizefs
 - rsyslog
 - users-groups
 - ssh
