removing kernel-devel rpms

Hello,

A few weeks back I installed xen and the kernels needed to run it. These
kernels where to old to run the new udev and stuff like that so I
removed them. I managed to remove them all except
kernel-xen-hypervisor-devel. Now when I try to remove this package or
any other kernel-devel package rpm starts to use 100% cpu and eating up
all my memory (no swapping) and that's it. I have to kill it with kill -9.
I also tried removing it with yum but this gives the same result.
When I run rpm with -vvv I get this output:

Here it stops doing stuff. When I try to remove a package for the first
time I see a lot of hd activity first before I goes to 100% cpu usage.
The second time I try it does it directly.

I tried rebuilding my rpm database. Also by first removing the __db*
files in /var/lib/rpm/ but that doesn't work either.

Is there a way to remove this packages? Because I start to get quite
some kernel-devel packages and it's probably a bug.

thanks,

Bart
