It comes with gcc (GCC) 4.1.2 20080704 (Red Hat 4.1.2-48) It sounds like whoever is specifying the compiler is expecting a RHEL 5 or compatible system. RHEL is still supported and receiving regular patches. Since you are running an EOL FC4, I'm guessing that paid support is not important to you, so look at the free rebuilds. As you may have gathered from the other followups, updating the RPMS piecemeal or rebuilding GCC is not for the faint-hearted.
