Upstream has effectively killed netconfig. See
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=383441, and also from the
5.1 upstream release notes:

#

pump is deprecated in this update. As such, configuring your network
interface through netconfig may result in broken ifcfg scripts.

To properly configure your network interface, use
system-config-network instead. Installing the updated
system-config-network package removes netconfig.

You can use the netconfig from 5.0, but it may break on your at some
point, and you'll have to exclude system-config-network from yum, as
updating it will remove netconfig.
