There is a yum command to do that. From the yum-utils package:
package-cleanup --orphans
will list all of the packages that aren't from your currently defined
repositories. You don't want to blindly remove these as there may be some
addons you want to keep (that weren't from fc4).

There probably isn't a lot of point to removing the packages first. You are
going to want to do a clean up after the upgrade any way, so you might as
well just do it once.
