I had a kernel bug, and was anxious to test the latest. Yum, despite my configuration, insisted on deleting the only working kernel. Someone said that there was a yum bug and that a fix was forthcoming, so I simply ran yumdownloader regularly and then rpm to install the kernel.

Do you have a reference to the yum bug you are mentioning? Was a bug report filed?

I don't, and I have no idea. Since it was alleged to be under control, I simply worked around it as outlined above.

Well, I wouldn't count on random claims on issues under control unless I see a associated bug report. That's a good way to lose track of problems.

Maybe, but my concerns (getting to play with virtualisation) are different from yours. For my needs, a "random claim" describing observed behaviour is a sufficient justification for doing something different. I'd had to resort to a recovery disk to get a working system, the imperative was to avoid a recurrence of that condition.
