direct links of old sources may well be a few messages off.

You're skipping a step during the compiling!
It says fedora in the tutorial, but it also applies to EL
------------------------------------------------------------------------
The redhat way seems to be:
redhat# cp /boot/kernel-2.4.some-thing.config .config
or cp /boot/config-2.4-somthing-whatever .config
# make -s oldconfig_nonint ; make -s oldconfig_nonint
fedora# cp /boot/config-2.4.some-thing .config
# export CC=gcc32
=======> # vi Makefile #mod EXTRAVERSION to match installed kernel <==
# yes "" | { make oldconfig ; make oldconfig ; }
----------------------------------------------------------------------
You need to change the EXTRAVERSION to match your kernel.
