No. I'm saying that on el2 and el3 you have "proper" kernel-source
packages and so it's easy to build it there.
Also given that a build on el3 seems to work fine on el4 then it might
be easier to just build on el3 and be done with it.

That's what I consider jumping through hoops and there's no way to put
that into a src.rpm that can be rebuilt inside a buildroot with mock or
similar.
I whipped up an rpmforge compatible specfile for mpt-status 1.2.0 but
since it's not possible to build on el4+ due to the above requirement I
probably won't bother submitting it to the project.
Well my target OS is el5 (32 and 64 bit) rather than el4, but they're
both 2.6 kernels so you may be right.

I just tested my el3.i386 build on a fully updated CentOS 5.1 machine
and it works just fine.
This was on a Dell PE1955 blade with LSI 1068 SAS controller.
