Why do you want to recompile the kernel? It should Just Work with the

Add to /etc/security/limits.conf something like:
* hard rtprio 99
* hard nice -20
* soft nice -20
* hard memlock 500000
There is some anecdotal evidence that "memlock" does not work. I have
not investigated it yet.

I believe if you set a hard limit without also setting the soft limit
it will leave the soft limit at the default. On FC5 the default limit
for rtprio is 0 and memlock is 32k or so. I think you can use '-' to
set both the soft and hard limit, so the above would become:
* - rtprio 99
* - nice -20
* - memlock 500000
