I assume you've gotten a response already, but just in case here's all I know:
Yes, the kernel module is the full shlinux kernel. It has no CVS branch structure
I'm aware of (so your description of how to get it is accurate). The linux module
is a "drop-in" tree, i.e. files you "drop-in" over a generic (e.g. kernel.org) kernel
(easily done using the linux/scripts/treelink.sh script). The current linux module
has two CVS branches (current 2.4 and future 2.5), however there is a request in
progress [as far as we know!] to replace it with a new one which will include the
kernel module history, and likely won't branch until 2.5 actually starts.
You can use either; both are effectively at the 2.4.13-pre2 level for now. See the
mailing list archives from October/November for a better idea of status.
As you must have seen, linuxsh-web is the website source, and sh-boot is a copy
of sh-ipl+g (though I don't think it's kept up-to-date with versions at m17n.org).
I don't think there's a later version of the website docs, but they may not be fully
up-to-date.

Not me. Talk to the Dreamcast folk (Marcus?)

If you've heard nothing else, check www.sh-linux.org and
maybe m17n.org/linux-sh.
