Here is what I have done:
1. Grabbed fedora compiz source rpm
2. Checked out git compiz
3. Tarred it into compiz-current.tar.bz2
4. Tweaked the spec (you have to pass --enable-librsvg to configure for
svg supoort), built the rpm and installed it.
Keep in mind that desktop-effect will not work with latest vanilla
compiz, but everything else (apart form metacity theme support) works
like charm. Hope that helps. I'm attaching the tweaked spec.
