<p>I finally figured it out. It had nothing to do with the yum
version; it just so happened that there was cached metadata for
the repository on the RHEL 6.2 machine, and when yum failed to
connect to the repository host, it used the cached metadata
instead.</p>
<p>Thus, if I want to know if any yum repositories are
inaccessible, I need to do a "yum clean" first.</p>
