This machine is using ra_neon. I can do neon and/or serf if that fills
more holes in coverage. But I notice that your OS X machine is doing
ra_serf already. There are currently no libserf rpm's in the default
CentOS repositories, and it seems most sensible to mimic what the
package maintainers for a given platform are likely to use. So I'm
assuming CentOS will use ra_neon, unless they pull in serf officially
when 1.7 comes down. There are 3rd party repositories that currently
have libserf, or else I can just build from source.
