The archive-source.sh script depends on realpath command, which was
introduced in coreutils-8.15. CentOS-6 build systems use coreutils-4.7,
which does not have realpath, so fix the script to use 'readlink -e' to
perform the same action.

Isn't CentOS-6 outside of our supported build platform range? We aim for
latest stable release + 5 years. CentOS got to 8 before being replaced
