Doing a simple ./configure and hoping for the best is not good enough. ;o)
The programs will compile themselves aganst the system library locations,
which may not be avaiable - nor accessible - on a *shared* hosting system,
as for that matter, may not SSH.  ( Care to mention, off-list if necessary,
the shared hosting provider concerned? )

Why are we not surprised? :o)

Trying the whole thing in a 'chroot jail', with all the necessary libraries 
under
the same roof, with the library paths carefully stated in the ./configure line, 
may
just work.
