... Is there a correct approach to making these directories available at a system level other than just adding

to your .cshrc? I am surprised that the rpm didn't come with /etc/profile.d/j2re.[c]sh template scripts.
that's all i've ever done -- manually added a java.sh file to that directory. if there's a cleaner way, i'm interested.
actually, technically, to have my changes survive across re-installs, i generally symlink any new files in there to somewhere in my home directory (it's pretty much a single user machine). so /etc can be completely trashed and re-installed, but my home dir is preserved across re-installs.
