Note: "permalinks" may not be as permanent as we would like,
direct links of old sources may well be a few messages off.

On an FC system /lib/modules/`uname -r`/build is a soft link to where the 
sources are for that kernel.
i.e. for 2.6.16-1.2069_FC4
$ ls -l /lib/modules/2.6.16-1.2069_FC4/build
lrwxrwxrwx  1 root root 47 Mar 28 09:12 /lib/modules/2.6.16-1.2069_FC4/build 
-> ../../../usr/src/kernels/2.6.16-1.2069_FC4-i686
