To do that I would have to upgrade gcc to 4.9, which is no small task.  For those not familiar with Red Hat Enterprise Linux and its clones, it is deliberately out-of-date to maintain stability.  Great for a server, but a pain in the neck at times like these.

$ rpm -qa gcc
gcc-4.4.7-4.el6.x86_64

I am looking at two work arounds:

1) I have a Fedora Code 20 virtual machine.  I could run 2.0.4 in my main window through X11 from my virtual machine.

2) RHEL 7 is out.  I could hold my nose until Scientific Linux upgrades to 7.

IDEA: the Libre CAD developers could always avoid using bleeding edge compilers so the rest of us can use it.
