Ah, now this raises another question: is kernel-source-*mdk.rpm the source for
the secure kernel, or not? If not, how do I get secure-patched sources? If so,
how do I get NOT-secure-patched sources?

In the first case, I want to be sure that a modified kernel is the secure
version for a heavy-use Internet server; in the second, the Pick database
(http://www.picksys.com/) goes weird if run under a secure-patched kernel so I
want to be sure that a modified kernel is *not* secure-patched.
