Description

The problem is in AS_VERSION_COMPARE([$LINUXRELEASE],[2.6.32-343] in ldiskfs-build.m4. The result of string comparison of "2.6.32.lustremaster" and "2.6.32-343" give a great and series for rhel6.4 are chosen.

The value of EXTRAVERSION in kernel Makefile should be chosen careful for subsequent string comparison or we need to change the code of series selection.
