Karl,

Building any C programs will require having appropriate header files, That is 
what is 
implied by a developer environment rather than just a runtime environment.

The option you would have is to use a binary distribution if maintaining
a development environment is not practical on your end. I build under Fedora 
Core
environments using up to date kernels in both 32 and 64 bit environments.
