centos5 has been out for a looooooooooong time now and the yum that's in 
centos 5.3 has had a number of bugfixes.

So is yum 3.X considered bad b/c 3.0.X had some bugs? B/c lemme tell you 
2.4.X had a good number of bugs, too.

It looks like it is fixed in yum available for what will be centos 
5.4/rhel 5.4.

yum 3.2.22 doesn't have it this issue.
