In this rpm not included patch which added to kernel series after 1.6.3
released and new kernels for 1.6.4 is not released.
If you want build b1_6, you can have two cases:
1) install quilt and apply rhel4 CFS kernel series into stock redhat
kernel.
2) or need go into lustre/kernel_patches/patches and apply
modpost_external_module_updates_rhel4.patch to you kernel sources by
hand.

after it kernel need to rebuild (for second case not need install
because changes only on build rules and modpost utility)
