Start with the samba3x SRPM from RHEL 5 or Scientific Linux, to make
sure you've installed all the dependencies:

        http://mirrors.kernel.org/redhat/redhat/linux/enterprise/5Server/en/os/SRPMS/samba3x-3.5.4-0.83.el5.src.rpm

Then try building 3.5.9. And strongly consider jumping to RHEL 6 or
Scientific Linux 6, there are interesting dependencies on the latest
releases that are better resolved in a 4 years more recent base OS.
It's been out long enough to be stable and have the edges worn off the
new software changes.
