4, 4.0, 4.1, 4.2, 4.3 are links to 4.4.

no they are not! and must NEVER be.

This is recommended as yum updates will use these when requesting updates that will update one version to the next.

only the /4/ is a symlink to the most recent release, yum _ONLY_ uses /4/ by default on CentOS-4 and never uses the sub release number. This is by design and please do not link 4.0/ 4.1/ 4.X/ to anything, they contain their own data ( essentially a readme file with the deprecation notice )
