Proxy code do not require oracle connectivity, but just oracle client 
libraries.
If it dies in "a big ball of fiery death" I would like to see some log.

No, it do not require whole copy of /root/ssl-build. It needs just 3(?) 
files from that directory (unless you use --force-own-ca) and 
installation script will give you exact command how to retrieve it.
If you see some different error, then please report it.

This one is valid. I filed bugzilla:

This will be the same problem as above. It should be fixed if we use the 
same c2s.xsl from spacewalk-jabberd-setup.
