strace shows that the "5" is not being interpolated into the mirror list
query:

socket(PF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, IPPROTO_TCP) = 5
connect(5, {sa_family=AF_INET, sin_port=htons(80),
sin_addr=inet_addr("204.15.73.243")}, 16) = 0
send(5, "GET /?release=$releasever&arch=$basearch&repo=os HTTP/1.1\r\nHost:
mirrorlist.centos.org\r\nAccept-
Encoding: identity\r\nUser-agent: urlgrabber/3.1.0 yum/3.2.8\r\n\r\n", 157,

yum 3.2.17 behaves better, so I guess this has been found and fixed
already (and RedHat doesn't know or doesn't care because it doesn't
affect them):

...
7213  socket(PF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, IPPROTO_TCP) = 5
7213  connect(5, {sa_family=AF_INET, sin_port=htons(80), 
sin_addr=inet_addr("204.15.73.243")}, 16) = 0
7213  send(5, "GET /?release=5&arch=i386&repo=os HTTP/1.1\r\nHost: 
mirrorlist.centos.org\r\nAccept-Encoding: identity\r\nUser-agent: urlgrabber/3.1.0 
yum/3.2.17\r\n\r\n", 143, 0) = 143
7213  recv(5, "H", 1, 0)                = 1

or it could have been fixed.

Without being found? OK, that happens sometimes.

oh and $releasever does impact red hat distros - for example EPEL uses
it - that's for rhel and centos.

From what I've seen it won't affect them unless there are systems with
mirrorlist being specified for repos in-line in /etc/yum.conf. There probably aren't too many of those.
