It should compile everywhere. If you want to use the RPM packages, 
RedHat is probably easiest; unfortunately RedHat decided to make 7.x
partly incompatible with the rest of the linux world, but we still have
to make the packages on redhat since that's what the majority of people 
are running. Once all distributions are using gcc-3.x the compatibility
problem should be over!
