I've had mixed success compiling on Redhat 9. I've done it on 4 different 
machines and two of them worked flawlessly. The other two couldn't be 
persuaded to compile a thing.

Anyway, it seems that the process is very sensitive to the order you do 
things in. My advice would be if possible to start with a clean install of 
RedHat 9, making sure to include any packages you're going to use - mysql, 
ruby (for acceptance tests) etc.

Next install the Java SDK, and set JAVA_HOME and add JAVA_HOME/bin to your 
path statements in /etc/profile and reboot. Test that the variables are 
set. This must be done before the next step.

Now you can grab quickfix. unzip and untar it, and run the ./configure 
command. When that fails, run the ./bootstrap command. Then run ./configure 
again. This time configure will be OK. After this make and make install 
will do their stuff, and the acceptance tests will all run. If the java 
environment is installed properly in the previous step, all the java 
libraries will be installed as well.

Now you can compile the examples. You might need to run ./bootstrap from 
the examples directory as well.

Well that worked for me. If you want a more detailed step-through I can 
send you my installation notes. Good luck.
