What is working for several folks on the forums, including myself, was
to rpm -e --nodeps xulrunner. 

Then, yum -y install xulrunner.

This seems to have fixed it for several people.   (However, judging from
further forum posts, it might already be fixed in the mirrors.  It's too
late for me to find out though, as I fixed it the other way.)
