I highly doubt that. RHEL5.x/CentOS5.x have 5.8, albeit with some
backported patches. And they'll be running into 2014.
And, for people that want to work
on the bleeding edge, 5.12 was released in April 2010. Your systems
are out of date by almost eight years! It is completely unreasonable
to expect anybody to support such ancient systems.
Actually it is hard to support fast-changing systems, hence the
'enterprise' linux distributions that try to make sure things aren't
bleeding-edge.
