Kevin,

It may or may not work...there are differences in libraries and other items.

Your best bet, if you wish to support your customers, is to also compile
it for RHEL 6.x.

Otherwise, you can tell your customer that, at present, your product is
not certified for RHEL 6 and leave it at that (though this will not
generate much in the way of good will on your customer's part).
