The install images for 20 Beta RC3 and RC4 are definitely NOT identical. The checksums are different, and just looking at the DVD, the options under "Installation source" are different (RC3 only had one option, RC4 has the regular complement) and the add-ons for "Basic desktop" are different (RC3 had Security Lab, which normally isn't there, RC4 does not). There are probably other differences as well, I didn't check thoroughly. It looks like something was broken with RC3 install images and fixed with RC4.

Sounds like it was affected by the kickstart bug too, then. We didn't change package loadout at all between RC3 and RC4.

only thing different between the two was last nights branched compose for input. pungi, kickstart, etc were all the same.

False alarm. AFAICT, the only actual difference is in the checksums. I think the add-ons difference was due to looking at a netinst vs. a DVD, and the "Installation source" difference was partly due to one of the VMs having an existing installation (which appears to lead to an additional "ISO file" option). I should have been more careful doing the comparison. Sorry for the noise.
BTW, the behavior of RC3 and RC4 is not *exactly* the same - for example, in text install for i386 RC3 vs. RC4, the positions of the root and user spokes are different - this is an example of https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=929177 .
