I managed to fix the build by applying two patches.
One to boost-polygon:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=784654
The second to kicad:
https://www.gitorious.org/fedora-packages/kicad/commit/
fa6a4e5f901bb044f270108c7559d18c9f15ee07

Both patches are short and I'd appreciate someone with stronger C++ 
skills to take a look at them.

Alain, once the boost-polygon / gcc-4.7 bug in RHBZ 784654 is fixed you 
can pull the packaging changes from https://www.gitorious.org/fedora-
packages/kicad/
