I built it on RH3 and RH4, the updates I made to the build
instructions were mostly due to more instructions being required for
RH3. The current instructions have now been updated since I did that
build (my changes and yours) but effectively yes, I have used the
current instructions to build succesfully on RH3, from source
distribution and from a checkout. No snags, it works as described.

To do a build from a source checkout the only thing I did differently
to the instructions is that I did the 'autotools' installation
manually becuase the qpid-autotools-install script wouldn't work for
me (even with the http and ftp proxies set up right). I didn't
investigate why it didn't work it just seemed less hassle at the time
to install stuff manually. Anyone run this script recently and know it
to be working?

Also, I notice that the automake version in that script is 1.10 but
the version listed in the build instructions is 1.9.6. Might want to
bring these two in line with each other for the sake of consistency.

A good point. Anyone with an RH3 system had a chance to try out the
current build instructions? I'll be happy to update them if there are
any snags.
