I don't quite understand what you're saying here.
kernel.org
kernels compile just fine on Red Hat Linux. Not sure what your
link to rpm is, except perhaps a misunderstanding.
Probably looked at an old
kernel.org Makefile. Here's current pieces:
...
RPM := $(shell if [ -x "/usr/bin/rpmbuild" ]; then echo rpmbuild; \
else echo rpm; fi)
...
rpm: clean spec
find . \( -size 0 -o -name .depend -o -name .hdepend \) -type f -print | xargs rm
-f
set -e; \
cd $(TOPDIR)/.. ; \
ln -sf $(TOPDIR) $(KERNELPATH) ; \
tar -cvz --exclude CVS -f $(KERNELPATH).tar.gz $(KERNELPATH)/. ; \
rm $(KERNELPATH) ; \
cd $(TOPDIR) ; \
. scripts/mkversion > .version ; \
$(RPM) -ta $(TOPDIR)/../$(KERNELPATH).tar.gz ; \
rm $(TOPDIR)/../$(KERNELPATH).tar.gz
So you can see that rpmbuild is accounted for.
