Spliting of rpm in several subpackages is a very good idea. 
But the lack of information can be very missleading for a  potential user:

for instance: rpm --rebuild kernel-2.4.20-1.src.rpm   
kernel-2.4.20-1.src.rpm: No such file or directory

sugessts that there is no kernel-2.4.20-1.src.rpm which is obviosly not true, it can cause user to perform a lot of file system checks and similar :)) While the problem is a consequence of missing rpmbuild in the system. 
There should be some 

sprintf(stderr,"The command %s failed sorry\n", cmd);

or something in the proper place.
