At the moment, HipHop can only run on 64 bits systems.

Building third-party libraries

libevent

wget http://www.monkey.org/~provos/libevent-1.4.13-stable.tar.gz
tar -xzvf libevent-1.4.13-stable.tar.gz
cd libevent-1.4.13-stable
cp ../hiphop-php/src/third_party/libevent.fb-changes.diff .
patch < libevent.fb-changes.diff
./configure --prefix=$CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH
make
make install
cd ..

ICU4

wget http://download.icu-project.org/files/icu4c/4.2.1/icu4c-4_2_1-src.tgz
tar -xvzf icu4c-4_2_1-src.tgz
cd icu/source
./configure --prefix=$CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH
make
make install
cd ../../

libCurl

Make sure that your system time is correct, otherwise ./configure will fail.

wget http://curl.haxx.se/download/curl-7.20.0.tar.gz
tar -xvzf curl-7.20.0.tar.gz
cd curl-7.20.0
cp ../hiphop-php/src/third_party/libcurl.fb-changes.diff .
patch -p0 < libcurl.fb-changes.diff
./configure --prefix=$CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH
