First, i installed the kernel-devel package with yum:
$ rpm -qa | grep kernel
kernel-devel-2.6.17-1.2142_FC4
kernel-2.6.11-1.1369_FC4
kernel-2.6.9-1.667
You must have the kernel-devel package that exactly matches the
version of your running kernel. Either update your kernel to
2.6.17-1.2142_FC4 or try to find the old
kernel-devel-2.6.11-1.1369_FC4 from some archive.
Thanks. Yup, i clued into that a few minutes later, removed the
kernel-devel package, and located the proper one and downloaded it
manually. I feel like a n00b.
I find it strange, though, that yum would install the incorrect version
for my running kernel. It's not as if i asked it to update it (and, even
then, it seems fruitless to fetch a mis-matched package).
I'll try again later this morning.

For posterity, this worked fine. The only other thing i did was to set a
soft link:
ln -s /usr/src/kernels/2.6.11-1.1369_FC4-i686/ /usr/src/linux
which i could have specified to runme.pl in any case.
So far, compiling with gcc4.2 seems to have gone ok (the kernel was
compiled with 4.0).
