The kernel I'm currently using is built from
kernel-2.6.10-1.1154_FC4.src.rpm and running on FC3.

I haven't ventured into the newer versions - as they have been updated
for gcc4 [gcc4 breakages shouldn't matter for FC3/gcc3.4 - but still,
I felt it easier to just continue with the 1154 I had - and upgrade
the kernel version to 2.6.11 release in the spec file.
