snapapi26 compilation problems on FC4

I have been trying to install Acronis TrueImage in order to test it before we get our new server in, which will have this installed, without success. The same errors arise regardless of what is done. These are the attempts that I have made after installing and building kernel source on FC4 on an i686, kernel 2.6.15-1.1831:

./trueimage-setup Fails at snapapi module installation

attempted to manually build snapapi with following commands:

dkms build -m snapapi26 -v 0.6.7 --config /boot/config-2.6.15-1.1831_FC4 --arch i686 --kernelsourcedir /usr/src/redhat/BUILD/kernel-2.6.15/linux-2.6.15/
result: Fails

dkms build -m snapapi26 -v 0.6.7 --config /usr/src/redhat/BUILD/kernel-2.6.15/linux-2.6.15/configs/kernel-2.6.15-i686.config --arch i686 --kernelsourcedir /usr/src/redhat/BUILD/kernel-2.6.15/linux-2.6.15/
result: Fails

dkms build -m snapapi26 -v 0.6.7 --config /boot/config-2.6.15-1.1831_FC4 --no-clean-kernel --arch i686 -kernelsourcedir /usr/src/redhat/BUILD/kernel-2.6.15/linux-2.6.15
result:Fails

All failures reference /var/lib/dkms/snapapi26/0.6.7/build/ at which time I open make.log. Always the same messsages:

WARNING: Symbol version dump /usr/src/redhat/BUILD/kernel-2.6.15/linux-2.6.15/Module.symvers
is missing; modules will have no dependencies and modversions.

These are the same errors I get regardless of what method I use. I have tried completely uninstalling Acronis, and removing the snapapi directory under /var/lib/dkms, and reinstalling the kernel source multiple times. Always resulting in the same errors. Any help would be greatly appreciated if anyone has an idea of how to fix this problem.
