It was merged; do a rpm -q --changelog on the 2.4.22-1.2040.nptl kernel
and you'll see it mentioned. Given that RHL is not really a supported
product anymore, it doesn't make sense to split out "unsupported" modules.
The changelog still says that distinction is made to some degree, but I
haven't dug into it any to see exactly how that distinction is made.
