As I noted in the original posting I had tried this, and the 
dependencies were hairy enough that I figured I'd be better off with 
building from the source tarball.  I went back and waded through the RPM 
dependency message and finally got it all sorted out and working, but it 
would be nice to know what's going on with the linker failures (and even 
nicer not to have to go through the downgrade at all).

Thanks for the reply.
