Somewhat confusing...I downloaded kernel-2.6.15-1.1871_FC5.src.rpm and 
extracted linux-2.6-modsign-mpilib.patch from the srpm. After diffing 
the mpi dirs created by the previously mentioned patch and that from the 
Fedora kernel I get:

(david@austin:~/src/kernel/div)$ diff -Nurbw linux-2.6.9-rc4-mm1/crypto/mpi/ linux-902/crypto/mpi/

+       if (mpi_copy( &temp_divisor, divisor ) < 0)
       return -ENOMEM;
       divisor = temp_divisor;
    }

Was that all the difference there was or am I missing something?
