Interesting... I guess I learn new ways to interpret error messages
every day.

No, it says quite the opposite, at least how I read it:
Description :
This package includes the tools you need to set up and maintain a software RAID
device under Linux. It only works with Linux 2.2 kernels and later, or 2.0
kernel specifically patched with newer raid support.
The way I read this is that 2.2 kernels are fine, but 2.0 kernels need
a patch. I reported this as a bug to RedHat.
Thanks for the tips. I've got my striped disks running fine now.
