But he brought up getting packages from FC4.
I was trying to convey ...
1) FC4 is the next ".0" revision, and
2) FC3 is the ".1" revision that _maps_to_ RHEL4
People who tap FC packages for RHEL4 (or CentOS4) need to be
_aware_ of this! There is not a day that goes by that people
think FC4 -> RHEL4. It is FC3 -> RHEL4!
[ Now I blame Red Hat for that, but that's another story. ]

He went to Fedora Core 3 to get a package for CentOS.
Knowing that FC4 is a new ".0" release and uses GCC 4 is
very, very pretinent to why you're going to have build issues
on RHEL4 (and CentOS4)! And that's why he needs to stick
with FC3 if he's going to attempt to use packages from Fedora
for CentOS4!
