Notes about centos 7, it fails to build from source.
It looks like this is due to the fact that the default compiler on EL7 isn't new enough to compile it correctly as noted here: nxhack/openwrt-node-packages#470

A possible workaround would be to use the devtoolkit package from SCL, but that's probably better done in a separate PR using the yum-centos cookbook to enable the repository.

hi @MarkGibbons

You've got it. Centos 7 runs everything except source installs at this point. Good luck.
