It's actually easier than you think.
It may not be!
I thought I would try to build 3.4.2 for Fedora 15, and then perhaps try
to build for RHEL as a test, and did a bit of checking on necessary mods
to the Fedora 3.4.0 .spec file (patches no longer needed) and
dependencies, and I came across this...
<http://octave.1599824.n4.nabble.com/Successful-build-of-octave-3-4-2-on-CentOS-6-unsuccessful-on-CentOS-5-6-td3660854.html>
It seems that it won't built on Centos 5.6, but will build on Centos 6.
So it looks like you may have to upgrade your systems, or maybe build and
run 3.4.2 in virtual machines running Centos 6.
Cheers,
