Problem should now be fixed, run a 'yum clean headers' and you should be 
ok to 'yum update'.

The problem was that although this update is an external non-4.2 update, 
it has dependancy requirements on pkgs in 4.2. The fix, for the time 
being is to withdraw this update and roll it into 4.2's tree directly.
