I've done all of my kernel-2.2.16 upgrading from tarball with no problems.
I've generally disliked the way RPM kernels upgrade.  Sadly, I do miss out
on RedHat's patches, but I'd really like to know what I'm patching for.  I
*do* patch with the latest IDE patches, though.

But, in answer to your question, the error message is stating that for some
reason make is looking for linux/errno.h off of its current directory at
that moment and not finding it.  The trick here would be to create a
symlink to work around the problem.  It just shows poor RPM development by
somebody there at RedHat (perhaps they didn't look into someone recompiling
the kernel after the upgrade).  A reinstall isn't likley to help you.
