Well, it wants the ndiswrapper from SL 5.4. I guess kernel-module- 
ndiswrapper-2.6.18-128.7.1.el5-1.55-1.SL.i686.rpm made it into the 5.3  
errata by accident when -164.6.1 was rushed out. So temporarily adding  
a line

	exclude=kernel-module-ndiswrapper-2.6.18-128.7.1.el5

to the yum configuration for that repository should make the update  
work.

Hope this helps,
	Stephan.
