Wow! Definitely a non-trivial patch.  Alas, it does not work but the
errors are different:

I'm guessing there are differences in the API between what CentOS has
installed (well actually the testing RPM I found to upgrade to 5.1 from
5.0) and what * expects.  Given that, I would imagine it is not safe to
manually edit makeopts.

Thoughts? Comments? Insults? Thanks - John
