What all I understood from your question, the answer for the same is as follows:

Kernels require different versions of gcc. like linux kernel 2.6
requires minimum gcc version of 2.3.
you cannot determine from gcc versions that what are the respective
kernel versions. As gcc is backward compatible, gcc-2.3 can be used
for kernel 2.4 as well.

Also, in redhat linux, if you want to know the kernel version, type
the command  uname -a

If this does not answer your question then please mail back.
