Yeah, this came up at Brispy last week. Until CentOS 6 comes out and hosting providers based on CentOS make that version available to their customers, quite a few people are going to want 2.4 support. That's likely to take a while, since the last note from the CentOS folks was a month ago [1], and essentially just said "soon". Once it happens, CentOS 6 users will be able to join RHEL6 users on 2.6.2.
