Ooops, I saw i686 when I looked the first time, yes, this should
be i686-redhat-linux. Good catch.

Bob, can you try manually changing this to say i686-redhat-linux,
I believe this is auto-generated at boot so it isn't a permanent
fix, but lets see if it updates after this by booting into the
older kernel (may need to manually change this file again),
removing the newer kernel and then try a 'yum update'.
