You hit the wrong list, you should post to the mrepo list ;)

           ^^^^^
No a regular CentOS mirror.  It would have been centos/5/os/i386/CentOS...

the centos/5.0/os/i386/CentOS has:
[tru at sillage CentOS]$ ls -l hal-0.5* gcc-4.1*
-rw-rw-r--    1 centos   centos    5189206 Apr  4  2007 gcc-4.1.1-52.el5.i386.rpm
-rw-rw-r--    1 centos   centos     379306 Apr  4  2007 hal-0.5.8.1-19.el5.i386.rpm

the centos/5.1/os/i386/CentOS has:
[tru at sillage CentOS]$ ls -l hal-0.5* gcc-4.1*
-rw-rw-r--    1 centos   centos    5454962 Nov 20 20:11 gcc-4.1.2-14.el5.i386.rpm
-rw-rw-r--    1 centos   centos     383566 Nov 20 20:12 hal-0.5.8.1-25.el5.i386.rpm

None of them have different versions.
You seem to have a mix of 5.0 and 5.1 ...

Cheers,

Tru
