I am using Win4Lin with Fedora but not the latest kernel from Fedora.  I am 
running 2.4.22-1.2129.  If I install the latest kernel and then try to update 
Win4Lin I receive the message that you received.  I would downgrade to this 
kernel if you can live with the security issues.  I am not sure what 
Neotraverse's policy is on keeping up with kernel upgrades.  I am hoping to 
be able to upgrade Win4lin once 2.6 is available in Fedora 2.
