Description of problem:
The file /lib/modules/2.6.18-1.2257.fc5smp/build/include/linux/version.h (/usr/src/kernels/2.6.18-1.2257.fc5smp/include/linux/version.h) provide by  kernel-smp-devel-2.6.18-1.2257.fc5.i686.rpm package don't have de UTS_RELEASE entry specifying the kernel version.

I put this entry in in version.h provides by kernel-smp-devel-2.6.18-1.2257.fc5.i686.rpm package and works successfully my compilations.

My _new_ version.h from kernel-smp-devel-2.6.18-1.2257.fc5.i686.rpm
---- CUT -----
[root@xxxxx linux]# cat version.h
#define UTS_RELEASE "2.6.18-1.2257_FC5smp"
#define LINUX_VERSION_CODE 132626
#define KERNEL_VERSION(a,b,c) (((a) << 16) + ((b) << 8) + (c))

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
kernel-smp-devel-2.6.18-1.2257.fc5.i686.rpm

How reproducible:

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Update the Kernel version to 2.6.18-1.2257
2. Remove package and reinstall package kernel-smp-devel-2.6.18-1.2257.fc5.i686.rpm
3. Another FC5 update package to kernel-smp-devel-2.6.18-1.2257.fc5.i686.rpm

Actual Results:
I can't (re)compile sources with check version.h

Expected Results:

This was moved to utsrelease.h by the upstream kernel maintainers.
There's really not much we can do about it.
