Have you looked at the rawhide repos to see if what you want is there?
Point your favorite WWW browser at them and look at the package names.

My guesses would include:

1) Use preupgrade to get back on Rawhide

2) Download the Rawhide version of fedora-release RPM and install that.

3) Edit the repo files in /etc/yum/repos.d to disable the F11 repos and 
enable the Rawhide ones.
