You should be OK, though it may be a little slower. Where did it
fail? Make sure that it's compiling with kgcc not gcc! RH insisted on
using gcc-2.96 and that can't compile a kernel, so 2.95 is included as
kgcc. I've noticed that many times the kernel compile won't go right
unless you:

make mrproper
make config (oldconfig)
make dep boot modules

Take a look at the top level makefile and you'll see what I mean. IMHO,
this was a silly move on their part. What do you think happens if you
grab a clean (aka: non-RH) kernel source?
