well you _must_ be going through a proxy or something that has an outdated 
cache ???

my yum.conf is identical and I get ...

yum list \kernel*

kernel-utils                        i386   1:2.4-8.37.1             db

Can you see the new kernels in  http://mirror.centos.org/centos/3.1/updates/i386/RPMS/ ???

You could try using as mirror to force reread of the cache ???
