Yep, there's still an i686 PAE, and it looks like so:

# uname -r
2.6.25-0.154.rc6.git7.fc9.i686PAE

/boot/config-2.6.25-0.154.rc6.git7.fc9.i686PAE
/boot/initrd-2.6.25-0.154.rc6.git7.fc9.i686PAE.img
/boot/System.map-2.6.25-0.154.rc6.git7.fc9.i686PAE
/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.25-0.154.rc6.git7.fc9.i686PAE

/lib/modules/2.6.25-0.154.rc6.git7.fc9.i686PAE

/usr/src/kernels/2.6.25-0.154.rc6.git7.fc9.i686PAE
/usr/src/kernels/2.6.25-0.154.rc6.git7.fc9.i686-PAE
(Yes, both, there's a symlink created for historical reasons I'm not actually 
aware of)...

So basically, everything just keys off of what uname -r is now, where before, 
we were uname -r everywhere except the bits in /usr/src/kernels, which 
were '$(uname -r)-$(uname -m)'.
