You should be able to install
dahdi-linux-complete-3.1.0-rc1+3.1.0-rc1.tar.gz [1] which contains a
commit [2] that handles the fact that RHEL backported the new
timer_setup interface.

[2] http://git.asterisk.org/gitweb/?p=dahdi/linux.git;a=commit;h=8c8b9b6df0d5757cad25b40efeb15ba1a7c95bdf

(although it looks like the dahdi-linux-complete tarball has not been
updated since the final 3.1.0 was released)
