Yeah, it's a complete pain in the neck. I've not found a force option with yum, but what I do, for example, in installing RT3, is use yum-downloader, do a download only of the rpmforge package (as in this case) and then do rpm --force -ivh <package>.
(I go into more detail on my page about installing rt3 at http://home.roadrunner.com/~computertaijutsu/rt3.html, in case you're not familiar with any of the steps above.)
