[ewg] Problem installing OFED 1.5.3.2 on to Scientific Linux 6.1

[Crossley, Malcolm (GE Intelligent Platforms)]

Hi Hiroyuki,

I discovered the cause of the failure was that the system time was set 
in the past. The time was set in the past because I'm using an embedded 
board which does not have a battery backed up RTC and the time reset to 
the BIOS build date.

Once I set the time correctly and applied the sed line below then 
everything installed correctly.

I found I needed to add that line otherwise there would be build failure

with open-iscsi.
