We do supply a kernel-source rpm with every release.  For example, for
1.4.11:

kernel-smp-2.6.9-55.EL_lustre_1.4.11.x86_64.rpm
kernel-source-2.6.9-55.EL_lustre_1.4.11.x86_64.rpm
lustre-1.4.11-2.6.9_55.EL_lustre_1.4.11smp.x86_64.rpm
lustre-debuginfo-1.4.11-2.6.9_55.EL_lustre_1.4.11smp.x86_64.rpm
lustre-modules-1.4.11-2.6.9_55.EL_lustre_1.4.11smp.x86_64.rpm
lustre-source-1.4.11-2.6.9_55.EL_lustre_1.4.11smp.x86_64.rpm
lustre-tests-1.4.11-2.6.9_55.EL_lustre_1.4.11smp.x86_64.rpm

Will a kernel-source not be a sufficient substitute for a kernel-devel
package?

Perhaps a short term solution would be to have our kernel-source package
provide (in RPM Provides: nomenclature) a "kernel-devel" package to
satisfy other RPMs that may Require: kernel-devel.  I'm not entirely
sure this is doable, just throwing it out as a possible solution.

Cheers,
