No, this wasn't changed. Some people LIKE the "switch mirror"
behaviour. I think the ideal approach would be to emulate what
mpg123 does. If you hit ^C once, it goes to the next track, but
if you hit it twice, it exits. However, implementing this in yum
was seen as unreliable. So, instead, yum was made to exit at
the SIGQUIT (^\ on keyboard).
