RHEL3: Problem going from RH 2.4.20 to Linus 2.4.33

I compiled a version of Linus' kernel 2.4.33 for CentOS 3 (RHEL 3) and
found that several programs started failing with core dumps or lockups.
It seems to center on two different things: the clone() call, and some
kind of file locking call that isn't supported ("fuserlock"?)
The clone() call resulted in core dumps; the other resulted in
programs receiving an unexpected "not implemented" result and entering
an endless loop waiting for a positive result.
Any tips? I'd like to keep the kernel current....
