That is a bit strange. I would have expected the links to be http://server/centos/*5*/blahblah instead of having 5.3. Is your /etc/yum.repos.d/CentOS-Base.repo still the original version or has someone customized it to look at 5.3 specifically?
/etc/yum.repos.d/CentOS-Base.repo has this:
#released updates [updates] name=CentOS-$releasever - Updates mirrorlist= http://mirrorlist.centos.org/?release=$releasever&arch=$basearch&rep... #baseurl=http://mirror.centos.org/centos/$releasever/updates/$basearch/ gpgcheck=1 enabled=1 priority=1 gpgkey=file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-CentOS-5http://mirrorlist.centos.org/?release=$releasever&arch=$basearch&repo=updates%0A#baseurl=http://mirror.centos.org/centos/$releasever/updates/$basearch/%0Agpgcheck=1%0Aenabled=1%0Apriority=1%0Agpgkey=file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-CentOS-5
But anyway /var/cache/yum/updates/mirrorlist.txt finally got updated and the problem has been solved. I'm still wondering why I couldn't update the file in the first place, though.
Glad to hear it resolved itself automatically. It probably just has something to do with you trying to update so close to the official release time.
