What is wrong - you are building kernel with broken compiler even Red Hat does not. Even there is fixed compiler already in place and is usable with not breaking GPL rules.
Oh come on. Not that again. That has all been explained in *detail* in http://bugs.centos.org/view.php?id=1402, where you couldn't explain either on where to obtain the gcc the kernel has been compiled with by the upstream vendor.
The SRC packages are available from Beta channel from RHN. There is a person from your team who exacly know the version. So grab the SRC package and rebuild.
If you know GPL you know that this is completly safe.
Building broken kernel is WRONG. The kernel crashes and you know about it but do not build the kernel correctly. The kernel does not follow 'as close as possible' RHEL. This is wroong too as you may read in this thread.
So what are you doing guys? Rules that you are do not follow but talking about following the rules? This is very very sad.
If you know where the source is and you are unable to grab them, write to me - simple script is able to put them to any FTP site. I'm using CentOS and RHN too to give back to Red Hat at least a little.
