Sure, I know that - I have both of those working.

Thanks, I appreciate it. I will attach the full log once the latest 
build attempt has completed (I removed the -s from the make lines to be 
able to better connect the errors/warnings with their causes).

I apologize if this confused anyone - perhaps I should have said 
something more along the lines of:
"a kernel based on kernel-2.6.32-71.29.1.el6.src.rpm"
(also got the same problem with kernel-2.6.32-220.el6.src.rpm)

Is that better? :)
