Good enough for me, just wanted to make sure you actually needed to 
recompile.

If you used RHN to download the package, unless you've changed things, I 
believe it also installs the packages, no? I've configured mine for 
download only, but I seem to recall that download, install, and remove 
the .rpm file is the default.

up2date downloads packages to /var/spool/up2date/

You can check to see if it is installed with 
rpm -q kernel-source

If it isn't installed and the rpm file is in 
/var/spool/up2date/kernel-source...
You can install it with 
rpm -Uvh /var/spool/up2date/kernel-source*.rpm

For now, forget the /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/build symlink, it's not 
important. Just verify that it still exists and points at 
/usr/src/linux-2.4(some-version). To do so, let's see the output of 
ls -l /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/build

Make sure you read the docs for the pcmcia package. By default, it will 
decline to build new modules, as you already have the modules installed. 
You'll need to do a bit of work to make it build the modules and the 
userspace tools.
