Did it build OK for previous 5.1 kernels? Do you know where it is picking include/linux/utsname.h from? - it should be: /lib/modules/2.6.18-53.1.14.el5/build/include/linux/utsname.h (which is really under /usr/src/kernels/2.6.18-53.1.14.el5-x86_64) Where does the output of configure say about this?
