Description of problem:

I agree that the bug is an incorrect sanity check (which your patch
fixes), the "no space" behavior is however a feature as the following
is a valid scenario:

    rlIsRHEL '<=5' 6.2 6.4 '>=7'

The manpage could probably use some examples as well.

as for test_rlIsRHEL, we should probably test two-digit numbers as well,
like 5.10.
