blkid /dev/sda2 yields the same id that

So, it seems a different uuid was generated and placed
in the boot/grub2/grub.cfg file when the update was done.
Modifying /boot/grub2/grug.cfg to use uuid that
kernel-3.3.4-3.fc16.i686 has no problem with,
and rebooting, yielded the same problem: dracut
is unable to find and mount the root device.
And vice-versa: modifying /etc/fstab to use the uuid
that dracut is expecting (per the uuid that was inserted
into the grub.cfg by the installation of kernel-3.3.6-3.fc16.i686),
also yields the same failure to mount.
Of course in both cases, grub.cfg and fstab were moded
to have same uuid of / parition.
