Indeed, we've seen same problem here and dropped Dag/RPMForge from the list of repositories we propose to SLC5 users: replacing system packages/libraries by newer versions breaks the compatibility between SLC/SL/RHEL/CentoOS ... so in the longer run it was causing us more problems than bringing benefits ..
