I built all the binaries on RHEL6beta2refresh. Other than that, I hope
that the info on how to build cplus 6 kernel is in that bug tracker
entry.

I had a quick look at the patches. The first one seems to be

Could you file a request at bugs.centos.org ? I can try and build a
test cplus kernel with those patches applied. Are you then able to
test it to see if the patched version works as expected?
