I test this feature with up2date-3.9.10-2 .

/etc/sysconfig/rhn/sources :
yum rawhide /var/RH/rawhide/yum/os/i386

/etc/sysconfig/rhn/up2date :
enableRollbacks=1

I do a huge update (more than 300 packages).
And after undo the update.

As result i got a broken system.
The log of "up2date --undo" :

"up2date --undo is broken" is not useful :-)
