While distro/php versions probably will always be a factor to some degree,
putting too much weight on that as a deciding factor will lead to
stagnation.  RHEL and CentOS, arguably the most 'enterprise' of Linux
distros, still only officially support PHP 5.1.6, IIRC.  Yes, you can
upgrade from other repos, but I think you lose whatever 'enterprise support'
you might get (probably not as much of a concern for the CentOS users).
