Sure, C5 kernels only come in the i686 or x86_64 variety.
Maybe the OP's rpm thinks it's on x86_64?
'package kernel-2.6.18-53.1.13.el5 is intended for a i686 architecture'
is the kind of error one would see when installing i386 on x86_64,
the kernel rpm file has a list of unsupported architectures and it
will spit out this error when installing i386 on x86_64.
