Answering my own post :)
I have downloaded DC from here:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/doublecmd/files/DC%20for%20Linux%2032%20bit/Double%20Commander%200.4.5.2%20beta/doublecmd-0.4.5.2-1.gtk2.i386.tar.bz2/download
and got the GTK2 version, which works OK for me on Centos
5.6, and it is compiled with Free Pascal. The Qt version did
work for me.
Basically it's a precompiled binary, ready to run, similar
to the way Eclipse IDE works out of the box.

I need to configure it now, and check out it's operation.
Kind Regards,
Keith
