FWIW, I believe only the ia32 kernels have 4KSTACKS turned on... last I checked Opteron still did not have this option... feel free to correct me if I'm wrong.
You are correct ... I meant x86 (or i386/i586/i686 or ia32 ... whichever term you want to use) for EL4 and FC 3/4/5
xfs over normal ide/scsi should be fine w/ 4kstacks; if you start piling lvm on top of md under nfs etc etc, you could start running into stack issues with 4KSTACKS.

Just had to cover myself a bit ;-)
