Aaaaargh... Too obvious, obviously.
It's a problem in the way Fedora's update-repositories are created, the
SRPMS directory isn't included at all there - check the repodata from your
favorite Fedora mirror, this is the one I use:
http://ftp.heanet.ie/pub/fedora/linux/core/updates/3/i386/repodata/
Need to bug RH about this then, sorry about the noise :)
