[Xymon] Latest OS Versions supported

[Ralph M]

Oracle did the exact same thing to RHEL as CentOS did - grabbed the source,
rebranded it by changing strings from "Redhat" to "Oracle", added a few
proprietary bits (ksplice, etc) and built all the RPMs.  It is essentially
the exact same product.  I dunno why a RHEL RPM wouldn't install, but you
can certainly build from source following RHEL instructions.
