Apologies Raphael - just waking up, didn't notice you said where you got the kernel. Yes, it probably means that the kernel at: http://ftp.esat.net/mirrors/download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/releases/test/15-Alpha/Fedora/i386/os/images/pxeboot/ doesn't have the XSAVE patch. It probably doesn't work in to what they consider their target audience for that kernel ;) Whether they'd take a bug report on that...I don't know.
