Well you can use the 10.3 one on 10.2, but it does not fly very well
when you need to compile modules. The kernel rpm is compiled with gcc
4.2 in 10.3, but there is gcc 4.1.2 installed on 10.2. A compiled
module is rejected by the kernel because its vermagic is different.
Which leaves you with two possibilities: either upgrade gcc (and, as
dependencies kick in, the whole distribution), or don't.
