The first 2 numbers (2.4) are the critical ones. IBM has to put the whole kernel on which they tested so they are legally covered, just in case. Though I doubt it will be an issue, it could and they have to cover their bases.
If your kernel is 2.4.18-14 (Redhat v8.0) or 2.4.20-8 (Redhat v9) then 10.1.4 will run fine. You may see a tiny issue here and there, but I doubt it. How many folks are running the PE version without problems and they have put that on a wide variety of kernels and distributions. That's my (educated/experienced) guess.
