I created a stripped down FC5 box and was able to compile and boot a vserver kernel "out of the box":
# cd ~
# wget http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/linux-2.6.15.6.tar.bz2
# wget http://vserver.13thfloor.at/Experimental/patch-2.6.15.6-vs2.0.2-rc13.diff# wget http://www.13thfloor.at/~ensc/util-vserver/files/alpha/util-vserver-0.30.210.tar.bz2
# cd /usr/src
# tar xvfj ~/linux-2.6.15.6.tar.bz2
# patch -p0 < ~/patch-2.6.15.6-vs2.0.2-rc13.diff
# cd linux-2.6.15.6
# make
# make modules_install
# make install
# reboot
# yum install beecrypt-devel tetex-latex dietlibc
# rpmbuild --without xalan -tb util-vserver-0.30.210.tar.bz2
# cd /usr/src/redhat/RPMS/i386
# ls

Tomorrow, I will try and create a FC5 guest on this host, but given Guenther's experience, I suspect it will go well!
