The kernel spec has switched over to use the same %dist tag as Extras.

There are some known issues with that kernel and a few before it that
are actively being worked on.

Well switching over to the "new spec file" causes all the 3rd party module
build scripts to fail. The say "kernel configuration not valid - run 'make
prepare' in /usr/src/kernels/2.6.17-1.2328.fc6-x86_64 to update it." Are
you going back to the old way or are going to have to fix all the builds? I
vote for the old way! Using "_FC6" is fine with me. There errors so far
are for mvidia, vmware, ntfs, and spca5xx modules.
