I don't know if those are new kernels in
- http://mirror.centos.org/centos/4/updates/i386/RPMS/?C=M;O=D
but as yum cannot "see" them is it because the headers are not updated?

The ones dated 10/8 are new. My up-to-date 4.7 still has the ...1.EL kernel build.

Since CentOS has not announced them yet, I would guess that is the case. There would also be a small delay while the mirrors get synchronized.

This appears to be the upstream details on the kernel http://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHBA-2008-0859.html
Even after a week the kernel update has not been announced yet by CentOS?
With posts like these http://www.centos.org/modules/newbb/viewtopic.php?topic_id=16691&forum=2... about a buggy kernel one would expect the newest kernel to be eagerly awaited.

The key word is "awaited". I suspect the real life has intervened to slow the completion steps need to release these updates. Sans security issues, real life could be expected to have priority. However, not being a team member, I'm only speculating here.
