 That would be ... hard.
 And ugly doesn't even begin to describe it. Also IMO using only a
single letter for the dist seems overly space optimizing ... if you just
want to remove all references to Fedora Core, propose it changes to
"fed14" or even just rename what the c stands for (like the GCC rename).
