Bad idea. If you do that, what you will have at the end will no longer
be CentOS, and if you break it, you got to keep the pieces.

Agreed, possible, but I think it's going to be really hard.

CentOS 5.3 (or any other 5.x) should not introduce any major upgrades
to glibc or glib2, although minor updates with mainly bug fixes are
expected, it should not bump to another version just like that.

Or try it under Fedora. If you want cutting-edge software, that is
what you should be looking for anyway.
Or yet, you could try to get version 1.x of cairo-dock to build under
CentOS, as that one is more likely to be built than the newer 2.x.
