Ok, it looks like the main CentOS 5 repo is still available at vault.centos.org, and EPEL 5 and the devtools are still available at their original locations, so this is a little less of an emergency then it might have been. Still probably a good idea to move on ASAP though :-).

(URLs for those who want to check for themselves in the future:
  http://vault.centos.org/5.11/
  https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/5/
  https://people.centos.org/tru/devtools-2/
)
