I think I found the offending package, I'll jump on the rf irc channel and see what I can make of this:

# yum list *HiRes*
Loading "fastestmirror" plugin
Loading "priorities" plugin
Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile
<snip>
257 packages excluded due to repository priority protections
Available Packages
perl-Time-HiRes.x86_64                   1.9715-1.el5.rf        rpmforge
perl-Time-HiRes-Value.noarch             0.05-1.el5.rf          rpmforge

# yum install perl-Time-HiRes.x86_64
Loading "fastestmirror" plugin
Loading "priorities" plugin
Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile
