People who wish to try RHEL6-style OVZ kernels may try this one:
ftp://gremlin.people.openwall.com/pub/linux/Owl/kernel/kernel-2.6.32-ovz042stab065.3.g1.src.rpm
(size: 88 115 306 bytes, MD5 sum: 5c1eac15b2101836897cb147edb2e6b6)
It works on most of my servers just fine. Differences from "mainstream"
are:
0. The kernel is mostly monolythic (but modules support is enabled).
1. Removed "magic /dev/cdrom" together with legacy IDE support, as I
use SCSI layer instead (with root=/dev/sr0 for CD boot).
2. Fixed build of lxdialog (see kernel-owl-lxdialog.diff).

Building own kernel is simple and doesn't require using initrd.
