`yum -y install compat-libstdc++` should get you set up.

In general, you should use the latest stable build:

http://olpc.download.redhat.com/olpc/streams/development/LATEST-STABLE-BUILD/

If you want to try something newer, you can look at the Tinderbox:

If a build has passed all tests, it's likely to at least bring up the
sugar environment successfully.
