Just a note here, there are rpm packages fo gimp 2.8 for Centos 6.2 and
6.3 according to rpmfind.net.

It's probably also fine to build in /usr/local, it is on most rpm-based
systes - as far as I can tell it's only debian and debian-like systems
that consider /usr/local to be part of the operating system.

But good advice to stay away from it in general, though.
