I upgraded one system from the first RHEL 6 beta to the 2nd and ran into some "older versioned packages" and I simply ran package-cleanup --orphans and it listed all of the packages that were not available in the current repository. It was maybe a half dozen and was easy enough to go through and downgrade/remove packages no longer in RHEL 6 beta 2.
