CentOS - May 2007 - Compilation of kernel failed for CentOS 5

I downloaded the src rpm for CentOS 5 and tried to recompile it.  It failed
with the following message:

+ sh ./scripts/modsign/modsign.sh /var/tmp/kernel-2.6.18-8.el5-root
/lib/modules/2.6.18-8.el5PAE/kernel/drivers/char/watchdog/pcwd_pci.ko CentOS

--no-greeting $KEYFLAGS -b $module.out
error: Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.89878 (%build)


Is it segfaulting because it can't find the key to sign the module?

The problem you are seeing is probably related to this bug report:
