The problem is that this will have to be done with each new kernel 
release.  What I've done instead is to modify the zaptel Makefile, 
inserting this single line at line 40:

CFLAGS+=$(shell if uname -r | grep -q '2\.6\.9-34.*\.EL'; then echo " 
-Drw_lock_t=rwlock_t"; fi)

This will fix the problem for any 2.6.9-34 CentOS (or RHEL) kernel.
