You should be able to do the usually ./configure && make && sudo make
install to install any normal Linux package. The only restriction would
be if the package includes modules with embedded assembler code which
does not have s390x embedded assembler. The packages you specifically
mentioned are supported by the distributor (Redhat, Novell, etc.)
