Marc,

By supposing that all the GDAL depencies are all the same as the ones 
you use for compiling, it should work.  You can give it a try.  I'll 
suggest to make a backup of your actual fgs installation.  To help you 
locate where each file goes, you could download a GDAL FGS package on 
maptool.org and look to the directory structure.

Dependencies with fgs 1.0.0:

libstdc++-lib:6.0.8
libgcc-lib:1
jpeg-lib:6b
tiff-lib:3.8.2
postgresql-lib:8.3.1
proj-lib:4.5.0
libgeotiff-lib:1.2.4
openssl-lib:0.9.8a
xerces_c-base:2_8_0
unixODBC-base:2.2.10
libungif-base:4.1.3
libpng-lib:1.2.8
curl-lib:7.16.4
