That's why I update manually.  No auto-update for me.  I don't even use the -y switch with yum, so I can still opt out of the update after I see the download list.

As far as the new kmod, wait a few days, then check again.  The longest I had to wait one time (with F9) was a week, but most times it was a day or two.  However, I don't have to wait anymore:  F12's nouveau works just fine with my old GeForce 6600 card.
