I have a setup that sounds very similar.  I'm running Current on a
RedHat 7.3 box.  I did the OS install from CD, copied the 7.3 and 8.0
trees to it, which consist of the OS install RPMs and any updates from
updates.redhat.com.  I installed the latest Current snapshot and then
used the Current server to install all the 7.3 updates on the server
itself.  Worked like a charm.  After running up2date a few times
successfully, I started getting errors.  Running rhn_register again
fixed the problem for me.  I didn't think to save the errors because I
thought it was just some random weirdness on my box.  This same Current
server has been working with a handful of other 7.3 and 8.0 boxes
without a hitch.

Anyway, have you rerun rhn_register?  Maybe it would help.
