I uploaded some F12 builds.

Possibly it was during the F11 rawhide period that I looked and I didn't
check back for a while after the release.
Unfortunately my tdm card is in my only machine at home that has 3d graphics at
all working using the drivers in Fedora. And I needed to go to rawhide to
get that working more than I needed to having tdm card working (though in
the end I got both).
Give the current packages a try, if there are issues we'll get them fixed.

Yes. But I didn't see any clear instructions for how to work around it.
It seems that for some people using --define can work around the problem
if you know what to define. There was also a comment that you don't see
the problem because of something in your environment but I didn't see
any directions on how to set up a similar environment.
I use --define kmdl_kernelsrcdir /.../, that's all. But the error is
still just cosmetic, if I encounter it in a manual build, the build
still succeeds.

I tried using the dahdi-linux src rpm while having atrpms-rpm-config
installed, but hit the recursion problem and got stuck there. I would
still have had the problem with the last released dahdi not working
with 2.6.31 kernels. But fixing that would have taken the same route
as with the path I ended up taking.
