yum has include= and excludepkg= that can be set on a per repo basis.
Considering you are already using packages from the repo, on your
production machine, it sort of makes sense to atleast track the packages
for updates/ bug fix's and security patches. But thats just me.

it is sort of odd, thats the auto-dep checker in rpm kicking in.
Something has changed in the way the php packages are built  ( this is
from Upstream, nothing at CentOS ), and the new x86_64 packages have

rebuilt. ( 'tis on the tracker )

Thanks for pointing out the issue.
