I have posted it months ago here:
http://community.skype.com/t5/Linux/Skype-for-Redhat-Enterprise-6/td-p/1210686
Actually, I also posted to the c6 fora back then and suggested to
document it more precisely in the wiki.
That posting was immediately closed without further ado. Someone even
followed me to the skype fora, only to state that I'm just talking
bullshit and that http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/Skype has all you need
to know.
And of course yes: Skype-4.1 is running nicely here on x86_64 for all
these months. And it doesn't require anything special -- and certainly
not breaking your installation with some weird Qt-4.7.
