Secondly, what are these critical security updates you speak of ?
Arguably not "critical" as per RHs vulnerability levels, but still "important":
krb5-1.6.1-55.el5.src.rpm 2010-12-03(!!) https://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2010-0926.html (that's 5.5, where my 5.5 system only has krb5-libs-1.6.1-36.el5_5.6)
krb5-1.6.1-55.el5_6.1.src.rpm 2011-02-04 https://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2011-0199.html (that's 5.6)
And presumably every security update released since January 17th, amongst others: kernel-2.6.18-238.1.1.el5.src.rpm (https://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2011-0163.html), libuser-0.52.5-1.1.el4_8.1.src.rpm (https://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2011-0170.html), openoffice.org-3.1.1-19.5.el5_5.6.src.rpm (https://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2011-0182.html)
