I'm seeing the same thing and I've just done a fresh install of FC3 and
then started trying to update to development.

So far I've run:

	yum update yum

I then had to do a little manual installation of the packages downloaded
because yum decided for some reason no to actually install the packages.
Packages included in this upgrade were:

slib-3a1-2.noarch.rpm
readline-*
python-2.4-3.i386.rpm
lvm2-2.01.03-1.0.i386.rpm
bc-1.06-18.i386.rpm
ftp-0.17-24.i386.rpm
lftp-3.0.13-1.i386.rpm
parted-1.6.21-1.i386.rpm
cadaver-0.22.2-1.i386.rpm
samba-client-3.0.10-4.i386.rpm
ntp-4.2.0.a.20040617-6.i386.rpm
pilot-link-0.11.8-10.i386.rpm
guile-1.6.4-18.i386.rpm
python-devel-2.4-3.i386.rpm
pilot-link-devel-0.11.8-10.i386.rpm
gphoto2-2.1.5-3.i386.rpm
alchemist-1.0.35-1.i386.rpm
samba-common-3.0.10-4.i386.rpm
python-ldap-2.0.1-3.i386.rpm
db4-*
device-mapper-1.01.00-1.i386.rpm
perl-5.8.6-3.i386.rpm
gimp-print-utils-4.2.7-4.i386.rpm
cdecl-2.5-31.i386.rpm
system-config-printer-*
gnome-python2-*
pyparted-1.6.9-2.i386.rpm
libxml2-*
pam-*
sendmail-8.13.3-1.i386.rpm
openoffice.org-*
dmraid-1.0.0.rc5f-3.i386.rpm
yum-2.1.13-1.noarch.rpm
compat-db-4.2.52-2.i386.rpm
compat-readline43-4.3-1.i386.rpm

(sorry about the *, this is a cut and paste from a rpm -Fvh effort).  

I also had to remove pam-ccreds and then install it again using the
version from development after installing the compat-* packages.

It might be worth noting that during the install I got the following
output:  (note the error after installing system-config-printer)

[rodd@trevally packages]$


Now when I try to run yum i get:

[rodd@trevally packages]$ sudo yum update
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/yum", line 6, in ?
    import yummain
  File "/usr/share/yum-cli/yummain.py", line 23, in ?
    import yum
  File "__init__.py", line 21, in ?
ImportError: No module named rpm
[rodd@trevally packages]$


Given that all these packages were downloaded as a result of updating
yum using yum from development, I'd be keen to know what yum failed to
include that it should have.
