I still think this is some sort of a DNS problem. I added the lines 

  66.35.62.166            download.fedoraproject.org wildcard.fedoraproject.org
  80.239.156.215          download.fedoraproject.org wildcard.fedoraproject.org
  152.46.7.222            download.fedoraproject.org wildcard.fedoraproject.org
  209.132.176.120         download.fedoraproject.org wildcard.fedoraproject.org

in /etc/hosts and commented mirrors out in yum repo config, and after
that yum does work. (Updating didn't fix the problem, though.)

DNS resolving fails in other things besides yum, including ssh. It
does not seem to be dependent on the DNS server either. I tried
several public DNS servers all over the net.
