I seem to recall that the kernel-devel packages were hardlinked to save disk space. Try upgrading the package if it is installed. Try installing the package if it is not present.
Since the newer FC5 uses the yum plug-in which only saves two kernels and also because of complaints related to th time it took to hardlink the kernel-devel packages, it was discontinued or only performed if hardlink was present.
I have hardlink-1.0-1.21.2 installed. This is just what comes to my mind. Jim
