Nope.  This is a stock RH 7.1 installation.  I haven't even touched it.

If so, then it's a RH 7.1 install bug because I certainly haven't 
done anything to it.

Sure, here it is:

K03rhnsd       K15httpd    K20rwalld      K45arpwatch  K72autofs  K86nfslock  
K95kudzu K05anacron     K20isdn     K20rwhod       K50tux       K74apmd    
K87portmap K05keytable    K20nfs      K25sshd        K60atd       K74nscd    
K88syslog K10xfs         K20pppoe    K30sendmail    K60crond     K74ypserv  
K90network K12postgresql  K20rstatd   K34yppasswdd   K60lpd       K75netfs   
K92ipchains K15gpm         K20rusersd  K44rawdevices  K65identd    K80random  
K92iptables

The long listing is rather long and doesn't contain a lot more useful info.  
Basically, all of these files are nothing more than symlinks to the relevant
file in init.d.  Example:

lrwxrwxrwx    1 root     root           15 May  9 17:21 K03rhnsd    
->../init.d/rhnsd  

I note that there is no symlink to the "halt" script in init.d present in 
rc6.d.  Is that relevant?
