I was out of the mix for awhile because glibc-2.12.1 would not allow older fah binaries to function. ( http://foldingforum.org/viewtopic.php?f=44&t=16332 and many others...)
It appears that Peter Kasson built a fah binary using a newer glibc that is working on my box for now. It's called fah6_alt and is available here:

P.S. look out bennie!
