Looks like the js-devel/compiling from source conflict was the compilation
issue.
I've removed js-devel from the yum install line and CouchDB compiles without a
problem, and starts up and runs as expected.
However, when I come to generate views, I get lots of the following error:
[Sat, 01 Sep 2012 19:30:59 GMT] [error] [<0.236.0>] OS Process Error
<0.23368.0> :: {os_process_error,
{exit_status,127}}
Which seems to indicate that my SpiderMonkey installation is "not correct"[1],
but I'm not sure how my install differs from a "correct" install.
