Sorry for confusion, I meant version of Collection 4 is 4.0.0 - I mixed 
Collect with Collection. I get the error when trying to compile 
Collection 4. The version of collectd there is 5.1.0.

Meanwhile I tried compiling it with newer version of yajl-devel 1.0.11 
and with that I was able to compile Collection 4. (It took me some time 
to find some usable rpm of newer yajl-devel, as only 1.0.7 is available 
in CentOS, and I can't use source tarballs directly).

Thanks,
Pavel
