Well, exactarch=0 might work around this from a yum standpoint (as far as downloading the updates), but if RPM is complaining this is beyond the control of yum. As someone else mentioned, taking a look at your ~/.rpmmacros file would be interesting.

It was empty.

Also, could you post the output of:

rpm -q --queryformat '%{NAME}-%{VERSION}-%{RELEASE}.%{ARCH}\n' kernel

kernel-2.6.18-8.el5.i686 kernel-2.6.18-8.1.14.el5.i686 kernel-2.6.18-53.1.13.el5.i686

The last kernel was installed manually using --ignorearch.
