I've seen this also (and in fact I meant to check something in but got 
distracted by my other marker work).  I believe my solution will be 
backwards compatible to 2.6.9 kernels - I've tested it on RHEL4 but I 
wanted to test f7 and RHEL5 to make sure I didn't break anything.

Basically I moved all our flag settings to EXTRA_CFLAGS (which is used 
by both kernels).  See the attached patch for details.
