Yes, see build_env.sh:

 216 # Add bonding support for RH4.0U3 and SLES10
 217 case ${K_VER} in
 218     2.6.16.*-*-*|2.6.9-34.EL*)
 219         IB_ALL_PACKAGES="$IB_ALL_PACKAGES ib-bonding"
 220     ;;
 221 esac
...
2049                     ib_bonding)
2050                         # Add bonding support for RH4.0U3 and SLES10
2051                         case ${K_VER} in
2052                             2.6.16.*-*-*|2.6.9-34.EL*)
2053                                 EXTRA_PACKAGES=$(echo 
"$EXTRA_PACKAGES ib-bonding" | tr -s ' ' '\n' | sort -n | uniq)
2054                             ;;
2055                             *)
2056                                 warn_echo "ib-bonding is not 
supported on this kernel"
2057                             ;;
2058                         esac
2059                     ;;

Yes, OFED's build script takes ib-bonding from
