No, we do not use a standard plattform. Developers compile sources for 
theirselfe. After a release packages for all major distributions will be 
published.

Maybe the problem is caused by RedHat 7's broken compiler?

The RPM is for Mandrake 8, which is using obviously different versions of the 
packages.
