An alternative would be to compile ODE libraries locally. git clone git://opensimulator.org/git/opensim-libs .. folder trunk/unmanaged holds the sources for the physics libraries. Recent updates appear to be for 'OpenDynamicsEngine-0.13.1mod' so I assume this to be the version used with Opensim.
Not used the ode myself but I have successfully tinkered with the bulletsim libraries.
