The winswitch packages were missing from the 6.7 repo (which is now the default repo for "6"), that should be fixed now.
But if you're stuck on a specific version (6.4 in your case) and not
keeping up with minor OS releases (currently at 6.7), you may want to
change the baseurl to read:
baseurl=http://winswitch.org/dists/RedHat/6.4/$basearch/
(and remember to change it again if and when you update that system)
