to compile your own modules  in an RPM based distribution, you just need 
the kernel-devel RPM installed, that has all the includes and such your 
module should need.    if you wanted to build the complete .el5 kernel 
from the .src.rpm, you would use rpmbuild, which would compile it 
according to the.spec file and would generate your own kernel .rpm.   
Typically when you do this, you modify the spec file and various 
patchfiles so your custom built kernel has its own version number suffix
