Jim,

Yes it is getting it from 
/lib/modules/2.6.18-53.1.14.el5/build/include/linux/utsname.h

I had to change the driver configure script :

Original:

if test "$kversion.$kpatchlevel" = "2.6" -a $ksublevel -ge 19; then
  CONFIG_HAVE_INIT_UTSNAME=1

My version:

if test "$kversion.$kpatchlevel" = "2.6" -a $ksublevel -ge 18; then
  CONFIG_HAVE_INIT_UTSNAME=1
