Sean,
As Dennis said - BoxGrinder is meant to use .appl files, not kickstart files, therefore
you get this error. You can read more about how to use BoxGrinder on its homepage:
http://boxgrinder.org/tutorials/
P.S. Although we have support for kickstart files at some extent, this feature most
probably will be removed in next major BoxGrinder version as it introduces confusion (as
you can see above) and is too hard to maintain.

Thanks for the responses. I would suggest that
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Cloud_SIG/EC2_Creation be either
corrected or taken down.
Is there another, more recent, step-by-step description of how to build
a fedora EC2 ebs-backed ami? For instance, are there F16 appl files
available?
