I think both FC6 and F7 install discs could be making your i686 to i586, there is some procedure posted on the Fedora wiki on how to fix this if it happens. It doesn't have to do anything with wireless & alsa etc., as the decision to upgrade the kernel is purely triggered by the kernel and yum. The kmdls are upgraded after the fact and obvioulsy manage to do the proper thing. They even saved you from trouble: Had they had the same bug as yum, you would be not noticing that your system was transformed to i586. :) I'd file that as a bug against yum and in case someone googles to this post, please do mention the bugzilla URL.
