Just one comment from a system management point of view: if you run
CentOS, meant as a stable production OS, you probably wants to care
for not screwing up your system.  Installing software without an
RPM, especially software that already is provided by the distro
itself, is the *worst* thing someone can do.

Your opinion is not always good. In this case, you're wrong. CentOS goes with FR 1.1.3 and it is few years behind 2.1.1

Rebuilding Fedora packages is a NO-No for me because Fedora is a test distro and it is good if you need new ideas, packages, test software, etc. ... Using Fedora packages sometimes can produce more pain than any other idea.

For RHEL/CentOS, if you're not happy with the distro version (I had
the same problem with CentOS 4), you should carefully backport
(often a rebuild is enough) a recent Fedora RPM and install that.
