Also, checking out the vanilla source, there are a few items in the 
linux-2.6.9/scripts/package directory that deal with building rpms and 
it is supposed to be distribution neutral. This is not the same make rpm 
that I used before from whatever source files I used to use. It does 
seem that making an rpm for the kernel would be worthwhile. As Paul 
mentioned, you have a lot more than what resides in /boot for the 
kernel. You have the modules for each kernel that will linger in a 
simple rm type of kernel removal.
