Steve, I did this with the initial patch from 2.60->2.59 can you try it with RHEL 3 versions? I changed the AC_PREREQ(2.59) in configure.ac, and a couple other things - if you run with the default RHEL 3 tools the error messages will tell you what needs changing. If we're lucky it'll just work with lower versions. If not, post the errors and we'll try to make it work unless there's some showstopper. That would be better than requiring a bunch of special versions of the tools to be installed every time someone wants to build Qpid.
Oh. I backed the AC_PREREQ to 2.57 and automake requirement to 1.6.3 in Makefile.am. From bootstrap I get: --begin-- ~/build/qpid-trunk/cpp

It's be a few years since I did any serious C/C++ development and I didn't have the pleasure of meeting the autotools - not from the dev side anyhow. Cheers, Steve.
