It is only a problem if you want to install more kernels.  There is no
requirement to keep /boot space free.

If you want to clean up confirm which kernels are used in your grub
setup.  Tar up the contents so that you can recover from errors. Ensure
that these are not links to other things and simply clean up the rest.

Make sure you have a boot CD to spare and actually reboot your system
after clean up to ensure that your have not deleted something critical. 
If you have multiple boot options, check that they all work by rebooting
each in turn.
