Tim,
Interesting! I hadn't noticed this before as I was not importing Fedora for quite some
time :(
Anyway, thanks for the follow up!

Subject: [cobbler] Re: Importing Fedora 23 (and 22 I believe) yields a kernel
option of "repo=$tree"
I used to get similar errors on f21:
http://red.ht/1SWSHoV , which
documents
a workaround.
I’m not sure that it got fixed as the bug report looks like it was
simply
closed as an error, even tho’ I’d reported the bug still appearing after the
suggested fix. I’ve not migrated to f22, yet.
