After doing a fresh "everything" install of FC4, I tried a 'yum upgrade', and got these errors,

Error: Unable to satisfy dependencies
Error: Package dlm-kernel needs /lib/modules/2.6.14-1.1653_FC4, this is not available. Error: Package cman-kernel needs /lib/modules/2.6.14-1.1653_FC4, this is not available.

This exact problem has been addressed here,
https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-list/2006-January/msg01530.html
and another long thread here,
https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-list/2005-October/msg03542.html

and, as it suggested, I just removed those packages - which I don't think I need,
# yum remove dlm-kernel cman-kernel GFS-kernel gnbd-kernel

However, the upgrade didn't seem to finish because I still have a 2.6.11-1.1369_FC4 kernel, and I thought it was upgrading me to 0:2.6.14-1.1653_FC4, but stopped when these errors showed up. If I try 'yum upgrade' again after removing those, it eventually gets to these same errors. (I also tried 'yum clean all' after the 'yum remove').

Do I need more than 'yum remove' to have it completely ignore these packages next time I try to upgrade?

It looks like your "yum remove" didn't work. Which kernel packages are actually still installed?

$ rpm -qa '*kernel*'
