Well, I'm closer to figuring it out...

I noticed that the ipt_dstlimit.h in my iptables source tree did not 
match the ipt_dstlimit.h in my kernel source tree.
The one in my kernel source tree does not define a "cfg" struct.  Which 
would explain the error I'm getting, but I still don't understand what I 
need to do to resolve this.

Why would both source trees have ipt_dstlimit.h files?
Why would my 2.4.20 kernel source tree have an outdated ipt_dstlimit.h file?
Can I just move my RedHat 7.3 box from 2.4.20 -> 2.6.7 without worry of 
bugs/issues?  I don't know how stable that new kernel is.
