Rawhide has version 4. With any luck you could just rebuild the SRPM with
no issues. I've done that with packages where I need a bleeding edge
feature on a CentOS system. Sometimes I have to tweak the spec file so that
it will build with the older tools.
The worse problem is when it depends on much newer other packages. Then one
gets into dependency hell. In such a case, you might want to try using
Fedora COPR to assemble a custom build system.
