got it

- cast runs post_install in delve (starting in devel sorcery)
- delve currently creates a new temp directory rather than re-using cast's
- mark_file_modified records removals in a file in the temp directory 
(wherever
that is) 
- when delve quits it removes its temp dir

The combination of all those points means that the modification recording file
doesn't make it back to cast and cast erroneously records an md5sum for the
facilities file.

This also explains the keymap file issue that was reported.

The options are to either pre-declare the modified file (trivial), or teach
delve to live inside cast's temp directory (trivial). I've tried and verified
both work. So I need to consider the implications of both, as there are pro's
and con's to both.

NOTE NOTE NOTE NOTE
this fix will prevent erroneously adding sysconfig files to the md5 list (the
cause of all this). It does NOT protect against losing the file from events
already set into motion. For that I don't have a good solution yet other than
trivially modifying all the sysconfig files (preventing dispel from removing 
the
files):

for each in /etc/sysconfig/*; do echo >> $each; done

We could 'protect' facilities (as its a core part of our init system), but 
that
fix can't apply to other sysconfig files, as users may legitmately want to
remove them. However, the reported impact on files other than facilities is 
minimal.
