Third-party proprietary programs which look for /etc/redhat-release are often (already in CentOS 5) confused by finding something other than an exact Red Hat version string there. There's really nothing we can do about that, although having separate files allows /etc/centos-release to contain the real information while local admins can edit /etc/redhat-release to have whatever e.g. Oracle is looking for.
