I just tried this with the 20080404 rawhide snapshot live cd and rhgb does show 
what looks like debugging output when trying to use interactive boot, and 
pressing enter twice is needed (only one character 'y' or 'n' is needed, but two 
enter presses).  Removing the rhgb works fine, only one enter key press is needed.

That output might be turned off for final, I'm not sure if that is a bug or was 
deliberate output.  You should file this anyway and we'll see.  We should have a 
preview image out really soon I think?  That should not have debugging turned on 
so we can check this there too.
