"yum erase gcc" but I would advise against doing that.
and install a more recent version of GCC.
It's a bad idea to replace the system compiler, just install a newer
version in a different path.
Specially if you attempt to remove it before having the new one ready,
as you won't be able to install from source (thus compil¡ng) the new
version
without a working compiler.
