Sorry. I actually don't know what your build configuration is.

The current packages for RHEL/CentOS are based on TL-2007!
To make one's own binary requires AFAIK pulling in the whole
Build/source tree and building everything; my attempts to use
--disable-all-pkgs --enable-dvisvgm weren't successful. So this
seems to be beyond what ordinary users should be expected to do.
I've suggested to Martin that he make available a dvisvgm binary for
Linux users at sourceforge. He already does this for Windows users
because MiKTeX for reasons unknown isn't providing dvisvgm.
But thanks for trying.
