Download mosh and libprotobuf:

wget http://mosh.mit.edu/mosh-1.2.4.tar.gz
wget https://protobuf.googlecode.com/files/protobuf-2.5.0.tar.bz2

Build and install protobuf:

tar xfvj protobuf-2.5.0.tar.bz2
cd protobuf-2.5.0
./configure --prefix=$HOME
make
make install

Build and install mosh:

tar xfvz mosh-1.2.4.tar.gz
cd mosh-1.2.4
PKG_CONFIG_PATH=$HOME/lib/pkgconfig ./configure --prefix=$HOME
make
make install

Add these to ~/.bashrc:

export PATH=${PATH}:${HOME}/bin
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=${LD_LIBRARY_PATH}:${HOME}/lib
export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=${PKG_CONFIG_PATH}:${HOME}/lib/pkgconfig

Adding PKG_CONFIG_PATH is completely optional, but will save setting an additional environmental variable next time you build something that depends in libprotobuf.
