I've been told that our current SRPMs will not build on systems that old
because the rpm spec files use features that didn't exist in rpm back
then (nested %if was mentioned, and there may be some other issues).
You could possibly hack the specfile until it works, but it'd likely
be easier just to build from a source tarball. The traditional
configure/make procedure should work fine.
