The last time I tried shadowing was long time ago. I did not use it
long enough to see any potential issue. Maybe I should test it again.

Surely. I recompiled both nx and freenx on CentOS 6.3. They are here:

http://centos.toracat.org/misc/testing/nx-freenx/6/

nx-3.5.0-2.1.el6.ay
freenx-0.7.3-9.1.el6.ay

Please note that they are provided for testing purposes, not an
official version from the CentOS project.
