[elrepo] Centos 6 - Kernel update using EL5 instead of EL6

[Jason Whiteman]

elrepo.repo grep for el5 is blank.

Looking for el5 in all files in yum.repos.d:

/etc/yum.repos.d/rpmforge.repo.EL5:baseurl =
http://apt.sw.be/redhat/el5/en/$basearch/rpmforge
/etc/yum.repos.d/rpmforge.repo.EL5:mirrorlist =
http://apt.sw.be/redhat/el5/en/mirrors-rpmforge
/etc/yum.repos.d/rpmforge.repo.EL5:baseurl =
http://apt.sw.be/redhat/el5/en/$basearch/extras
/etc/yum.repos.d/rpmforge.repo.EL5:mirrorlist =
http://apt.sw.be/redhat/el5/en/mirrors-rpmforge-extras
/etc/yum.repos.d/rpmforge.repo.EL5:baseurl =
http://apt.sw.be/redhat/el5/en/$basearch/testing
/etc/yum.repos.d/rpmforge.repo.EL5:mirrorlist =
http://apt.sw.be/redhat/el5/en/mirrors-rpmforge-testing

grep el5 in yum.conf returns blank
