Description of problem:
Recent xorg changes break with the NVidia binary driver, so I did the reasonable
Rawhide work-around and stuck 'xorg-x11-server-xorg' (and 3 or 4 dependent RPMs)
into the exclude= list so I'd not get them auto-updated and break my config.

So today, I wonder idly what release the xorg RPMs are up to, so I do:

# yum list 'xorg-x11-server*'
Loading "refresh-updatesd" plugin
Excluding Packages in global exclude list
Finished
Installed Packages
xorg-x11-server-Xorg.x86_64              1.3.0.0-33.fc8         installed

xorg-x11-server-source.x86_64            1.4.99.1-0.10.fc9      development

Wow. I'm *totally* not seeing xorg-x11-server-xorg 1.4.99.1-0.10.fc9, because
the exclude= has made even 'yum list' exclude it.  This would really suck if I
had been told "wait till 1.4.99.5 comes out', because I'd never *see* it and
know it was time to remove the exclude= entry.

And it's not just xorg, either - I have gdm in exclude= for another issue, and
yum says this:

# yum list gdm
Loading "refresh-updatesd" plugin
Excluding Packages in global exclude list

Installed Packages
gdm.x86_64                               1:2.20.1-5.fc8         installed       

Nope, no mention of the 2.21.2-0.2007.11.20.2.fc9 that's available.  Same thing
for several other RPMs I do an exclude= because the Rawhide version breaks
something...


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
yum-3.2.7-1.fc8


How reproducible:


Steps to Reproduce:
1.
2.
3.
  
Actual results:
Anything referenced in a exclude= evaporates and can't be listed.


Expected results:
I was *expecting* that it would at least *list* the RPM, and possibly a
'(blocked)' or similar flag.
