Summary of problem:  

boot with rhn_CA_CERT=<certificate_file> and that parameter gets persisted across reboots.  

This is not a bug.  the parameter you want is rhn_ca_cert=, not rhn_CA_CERT.  In your case, it happened to work because the certificate is in the default place we look for it.

FYI:

This is documented correctly here:

Yes, there is no such issue with rhn_ca_cert=, not rhn_CA_CERT, thanks for your  advice.
