Unless gearman actually requires root access (unlikely), you should be able to install this program using something like this:
Note the added "--prefix=$HOME" passed to the configure command. This will configure the software to run from your home directory instead of from the system-wide shared program directories. Essentially, there's not much of a difference between these two. The only real difference is that you have permission to create new files in your home directory, but not to create files in directories that are far outside of it and are shared by all users on the machine. For more details on compiling and installing software in general into your home directory, take a look at our home-install guide. Hope that helps! answered 10 Apr '11, 01:10 ryans ♦♦ what about the php-extension?!

You can't add PHP extensions to the existing PHP so you'll need to build PHP and Apache from scratch in your home directory.

Than you will have to build the boost library too, http://www.boost.org/
