Short version, because it has to work with the kernel you're running during the build, not just the one it will ultimately boot with. And if you refer to Host System Requirements, you'll see that 2.6.32 is the minimum version supported. If your host is running a newer kernel, feel free to use that version instead. Not sure if there's much benefit to doing so, though...
