I can confirm that it doesn't build.  One more person
can confirm the same thing.  The same exact kernel
compilation errors were in Centos 4.2.  Thread on
Centos forum discussing the problem:

http://www.centos.org/modules/newbb/viewtopic.php?topic_id=3519&forum=34

An anaconda file would provide the EXACT environment
on two different machines.  Right now the problem is
in the "you say it works, and I say it doesn't work"
stage.  

Right now you:

I say:

On Centos installation (no non Centos packages
installed) on an x86_64, Cento's kernel 2.6.9-34.EL
fails to compiles.  See
http://www.centos.org/modules/newbb/viewtopic.php?topic_id=3519&forum=34
on how it fails.

Either you are right and I'm wrong, or you are wrong
and I'm right.  I can provide you with the environemnt
(anaconda file)where the kernel fails to compile.  Can
you provide the environment (anaconda file) where the
kenrel can be compiled?

TIA
