If anyone has experience of compiling & installing Exim on Linux your insights 
would be invaluable.

I have been running Exim (and other servers) on Mac OS X  for many years but am 
now having to migrate them to a cloud system on Linode. I have always compiled 
from source on Mac OS X rather than using packages (there weren't any back 
then, and it 'just worked'). I can see that the issue on Linux is going to be 
where the various libraries are (or aren't), for example (from 'make'):

In file included from exim.h:490:0,
                 from exim_dbmbuild.c:31:
dbstuff.h:371:18: fatal error: gdbm.h: No such file or directory

Yes there are Exim packages available which will install in a breeze but, you 
know, I prefer to understand what I am installing and where. Any advice or 
pointers to relevant docs would be appreciated.
