I realize this thread may be a few months old, but in case someone stumbles across the same problem as the people that have posted: The issue *seems* to be with Centos6. While I haven't had the time to track down exactly what the issue was, HLDS failed to bootstrap AMXX on all Centos6 systems I've run. They have run just fine on several Debian-based setups.
