2.6.0-rc5 is not the latest version, 2.6.1 is. For the x86 architecture
for instance, it contains the following patches:

adeos-ipipe-2.6.37.6-x86-2.9-02.patch
adeos-ipipe-2.6.38.8-x86-2.11-01.patch
ipipe-core-3.2.21-x86-1.patch

So, any version earlier than 3.2.21 for which an Adeos patch exists in
http://download.gna.org/adeos/patches/v2.6/x86
http://download.gna.org/adeos/patches/v3.x/x86

Is supported.

That is:
2.6.24
2.6.25
2.6.26
2.6.26.7
2.6.26.8
2.6.27
2.6.27.13
2.6.27.19
2.6.28.2
2.6.28.7
2.6.28.9
2.6.29.1
2.6.29.4
2.6.29.5
2.6.30
2.6.30.5
2.6.30.8
2.6.31
2.6.31.1
2.6.31.8
2.6.32.11
2.6.32.13
2.6.32.15
2.6.32.2
2.6.32.20
2.6.32.7
