Well, the idea solution is that you don't compile things directly on your web server. There's no reason you can't compile it on a workstation and package it for deployment to production. Consider what you would be doing if you had a cluster of web servers. Would you compile manually on each server, or create a package (rpm/deb/tgz/etc) and deploy?
