You may have/had something else going on. This method has, at least as 
far back as 7.3, deleted the associated /lib/modules tree. For 
example:

09:38:33 # cd /lib/modules
09:38:39 # ls

2.4.22-1.2115.nptl
2.4.22-1.2129.cust1
2.4.22-1.2129.nptl
2.4.22-1.2129.nptl.caps.rhfc1.ccrma

09:38:40 # rpm -qa | grep kernel-

kernel-2.4.22-1.2129.nptl
kernel-2.4.22-1.2129.nptl.caps.rhfc1.ccrma
kernel-2.4.22-1.2115.nptl

09:39:49 # rpm -e kernel-2.4.22-1.2115.nptl

09:41:29 # ls

2.4.22-1.2129.cust1
2.4.22-1.2129.nptl
2.4.22-1.2129.nptl.caps.rhfc1.ccrma
