Yes, RHEL/Centos comes with an old version of PHP. So what? There is an easy solution. You guys act like there is no repository system and you are stuck with what you initially have on the box. Add a repo. I suggest not adding any ole' repo., but the Zend repo. Install Zend Server and you will always have the latest version of PHP 5.3. http://files.zend.com/help/Zend-Server-5-Community-Edition/zend-server.htm#rpm_installation.htm . I know there are a lot of RHEL/Centos haters out there. Please do not start an apt vs. yum argument.
