I've just checked my running FC3 machine and it has CONFIG_4KSTACKS=y - 
and I dont have any problems with it.

I've just noticed that my FC3 machine, I built the afs kernel modules, 
however, with the FC6 and RHEL5 machine, I got the kernel module from 
atrpms.

I've just tried rebuilding the kernel modules myself, and it fails (on 
the RHEL5) machine with

FATAL: modpost: GPL-incompatible module openafs.ko uses GPL-only symbol 
'tasklist_lock'

Is there a fix for this?
