Ok. It looks like some mirrors do have the new repository metadata. I found 
it necessary to disable obsoletes in the new config file so my custom PHP 
and SpamAssassin installs don't get down-revved, and to install the RH GPG 
key from the main Fedora page, as checking signatures is now the default. I 
also found that --download-only has gone away, breaking my nightly download 
of updates. (I want to decide when they get installed, but I don't want to 
wait for them to download.)
