From: Scott Rifenbark <scott.m.rifenbark at intel.com>
I made a few small edits and I added a reference to the
wiki page 'https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/BuildingOnRHEL4'
that has entries for older development hosts. Right now all that
is there is the RHEL4 notes but the wiki page can be expanded as needed.
