Yes.  Specifically, here's what this kernel has:

- base 2.4.25 kernel.
- applied libata patch.
- applied e1000 patch.
- applied bcm5700 patch (& removed kernel-bcm patches from the ~si/patches
directory).
- now re-tar/bzip2 the file and put it into ~si/src.
- put my .config in the right place
(http://world.anarchy.com/~peter/systemimager/linux.i386.config)
- build through SI's 'make kernel'.
