[Yum] yum update tonight disabled yum and any other libxml2 using application

Greetings;

I reinstalled yum 2.0.7 by force, added a few excludes to the yum.conf, and it downloaded and updated about 90 packages, including the whole kit, devel and python, for libxml2.

Now, yum won't run again, nor will any other python/libxml2 using
program because there are new things in the lib that nothing else
knows about:

[root@coyote root]# yum update
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/yum", line 22, in ?
    import yummain
  File "/usr/share/yum/yummain.py", line 31, in ?
    import yumcomps
  File "/usr/share/yum/yumcomps.py", line 4, in ?
    import comps
  File "/usr/share/yum/comps.py", line 5, in ?
    import libxml2
  File "/usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/libxml2.py", line 1, in ?
    import libxml2mod
ImportError: /usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/libxml2mod.so: undefined symbol: xmlNewDocPI

In /usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages I now have:
[root@coyote site-packages]# ls -l libxml2*
-rw-r--r--  1 root root 347678 Oct 27 17:18 libxml2mod.a
-rwxr-xr-x  1 root root    911 Oct 27 17:18 libxml2mod.la
-rwxr-xr-x  1 root root 263088 Oct 27 17:18 libxml2mod.so
-rw-r--r--  1 root root 308578 Oct 27 17:18 libxml2.py
-rw-r--r--  1 root root 525102 Oct 29 02:49 libxml2.pyc

So how do I get things matched up again so everything (up2date, yum, gftp,
etc all works again?
