I am running a 2.6.24.x kernel built like that on CentOS 5.1 x86_64, but 
be careful, some manual tweaking with "make menuconfig" is required, 
since there are too many differences between the kernel versions to rely 
entirely on "make oldconfig".

Bottom line - it works, but it's not 100% automatic.
