Multiple kernels can be installed at the same time anyway, so you don't 
need to add a special 'varient' or anything to get that, e.g. on one box 
here I see:

$ rpm -q kernel
kernel-2.6.18-53.1.19.el5.JSP1.x86_64
kernel-2.6.18-53.1.21.el5.JSP1.x86_64
kernel-2.6.18-92.1.10.el5.x86_64

BTW does the patch actually seem to fix the problem?  Currently most of my 
important NFS file servers are still running sl4 so I've not had much 
incentive to investigate just yet.
