That certainly sounds plausible. So if you absolutely have to build such 
an ancient version of RabbitMQ then I might start by trying to build it 
under Erlang R12B-5. I think that's approximately the right version 
(although I make no guarantees).

Note that 
http://www.rabbitmq.com/releases/rabbitmq-server/v1.7.0/rabbitmq-server-generic-unix-1.7.0.tar.gz 
is a tarball containing compiled binaries, so if you download that then 
at least you don't have to compile the thing.

I shall assume you have a good reason for doing whatever you're doing.

Cheers, Simon
