Just a random guess, but FC5 is pretty ancient as linux distributions
go. You might have better luck trying a version of lxml that's as old as
your distro, like 1.0.x or so. If you're lucky, maybe 1.3.6 will work.

If you want to be insistent about getting 2.1.2 built, I wouldn't be
surprised if you'll need to build an updated gcc and libc to be able to
build it. Upgrading your OS would be easier.
