You're already running the latest CentOS package which is quite old, yum 
update won't get you anywhere. The only way to upgrade is to rpmbuild 
from source, never sinply build from source on a CentOS system if you 
have a choice. See 
http://wiki.freeradius.org/Build#Building_RedHat_packages. There isn't 
much documentation on it and that how-to assumes that you already have 
everything you need... you must have gcc, rpm-build, and all of the 
-devel packages installed otherwise it won't build some modules. Watch 
the ./configure output as it builds to see if you're getting warnings 
about missing libraries... it may not be missing the library but the 
-devel for the library. You can ignore things you don't need like 
Oracle, etc. On CentOS system "cp -a /usr/src/redhat/ rpmbuild" probably 
will not work, use "mkdir -p 
~/rpmbuild/{BUILD,RPMS,SOURCES,SPECS,SRPMS}" in stead.

Also watch out for SELinux, it breaks things.
