Aha. Our local mirror doesn't sync the debug/ directory, so I had missed it. (I just looked at download.fedora.redhat.com to see the canonical structure.) It looks like something got out of sync on ourlocal mirror, because yum is reporting some debuginfo packages as being available even though they aren't actually in the repo. Disregard my original complaint about sneakiness -- it's a local mirror problem I believe.
