More information, now that I'm home again and have time to dig into
this.  I went back into the yum history and found the update in
question.  It included this line in the list of updates:

Install kernel-PAE-3.1.2-1.fc16.i686

At the bottom was this:

Scriptlet output:
    1 grubby fatal error: unable to find a suitable template
    2 grubby fatal error: unable to find a suitable template
    3 grubby: doing this would leave no kernel entries. Not writing out
new config.

If you upgraded from F15, grubby is complaining about the old grub.cfg. This is harmless. rm /etc/grub.cfg to make this complaint go away.

I'm not sure what went wrong, or where, but I don't think that
uninstalling and reinstalling that kernel will make any difference, at
least until the grubby issue is corrected.

As log as grubby did its job with grub2, there is no issue.

If grubby is having a problem with grub2, using grub2-mkconfig should fix it.
