If it would build easily with Centos6's native tools, I wouldn't be
asking the question... I think it was originally built on Centos5
but with locally compiled up-rev gcc/boost/cmake versions and
delivered with some alternative .so's and a scheme to set
LD_LIBRARY_PATH. Aside from not knowing the exact build environment
it expects, I was hoping it could be done in a more standard way. It
turns out that it does build on Centos7 - which I guess doesn't really
help when the runtime target is 6.
