The src.rpm is the basis for building the binary kernels for different
architectures from it, as well as to generate the kernel-sourcecode rpm.
rpmbuild -ba --target=i386,i686,noarch kernel-2.6.9-1.6_FC2.src.rpm
will do so. kernel-sourcecode-2.6.9-1.6_FC2.noarch.rpm contains the
patched kernel sources and deflates during installation to /usr/src/.
While the kernel src.rpm will install/deflate to /usr/src/redhat/.
With FC3 there is no more kernel-sourcecode rpm, because the src.rpm
contains the same and a bit more. See the FC3 release notes about this
and how to get the sourcecode package if really needed.

That is the kernel binary for the i686 architecture.
