In other words ... we just updated from CentOS-6.3 to CentOS-6.4 ... so
the OS directory and the UPDATES directories both changed ... so your
assumption is incorrect.

This is because, 6.4/os is not the same as 6.3/os.  Remember that the OS
directory is what is on the ISOs ... that obviously updates if we move
to a newer point release and release new ISOs.

You know what they say about assume :D
