I used to be in the same boat. I have enabled the atrpms-testing repo, but
only using it for the qt4* packages. To do that I edited the
[atrpms-testing] section of the file /etc/yum.repos.d/atrpms.repo like so:

[atrpms-testing]
name=Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 - i386 - ATrpms testing
baseurl=http://dl.atrpms.net/el5-i386/atrpms/testing
includepkgs=qt4 qt4*
failovermethod=priority
enabled=1

In the file /etc/yum.repos.d/CentOS-Base.repo I added:

exclude=kernel* qt4 qt4*

to the [base] and [updates] section. The kernel packages are excluded there
as I use centos.plus kernels (for DVB support). Not sure if I had to exclude
the qt4 packages here, but I add it just to be complete.
