I'm trying to get emacs 24.3 installed. That means, afaict, that I
need to build it from source.
I followed these steps: http://pastebin.com/VYstcsYc
And am getting this error message: http://pastebin.com/UDGQnrwM
Thoughts?

That's tiny, why not just include the text in your message?
FWIW:
You do not need autoconf to compile Emacs from a release tar file.
Nor do you need texinfo.
There's no point installing image libraries if you are going to
configure --without-x.

IIRC, the solution might be
yum install ncurses-devel
(I think it's fixed in Emacs trunk.)
There's also
yum-builddep emacs
as mentioned in INSTALL. Not sure it will work right in CentOS 5 though.

#!/usr/bin/env bash
yum -y groupinstall "Development Tools"
wget http://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/ncurses/ncurses-5.9.tar.gz
tar xzf ncurses-5.9.tar.gz

This didn't work, but I was able to add the step in the script above
to directly download and build ncurses.

I was unable to get this to work. It always failed with something
along the lines of `no package emacs.src is defined`.
Thanks for your help!
