Broadcom 5700/5701 Gigabit Ethernet Adapters

I'm currently using kernel 2.4.9-21 from RH, after updating my RH 7.2.

I want to build a custom kernel 2.4.17 but
the "Broadcom 5700/5701 Gigabit Ethernet Adapter" (which I need)
isn't in the source. Obviously an addon from RH.

Why isn't the driver in the main kernel tree ?

Kind regards _______________________________________________________________
