It does?
It doesn't mention this in the manpage.

That doesn't explain why the new version doesn't show up on "yum list
*kernel*", does it?

"yum upgrade kernel" failed to find the new kernel as well a little
earlier, but now it installes 2.4.20-20.9 - I guess RedHat just released
a new kernel-upgrade.

And "yum upgrade" still fails after the kernel-upgrade, as
kernel-2.4.20-20.9 doesn't provide /boot/vmlinux-2.4.20-19.23.rh9.at.
