informations on Redhat 7.1 and Official GCC releases


Hi,
I'm a Slackware user so I really don't understand well the policies of
Redhat.
I was looking into Redhat distribution v. 7.1 (7.2) and the gcc compiler

version they are using is 2.96 which is not listed in your
http://gcc.gnu.org/releases.html
So I'm lost.
It's a mistake in the table or does it mean that Redhat built its own
versions of the compiler?
(I really don't like cases where forking projects happen and I'm afraid
Redhat is doing that frequently).
How is this handled by the official GCC team (I guess some of you are
redhat developers...) ?
Thanks in advance
Best Regards
    Francesco
