What Redhat lets you do by provide both compilers is run your production stuff on the known sane compiler, and play in your development sandbox with the new compiler ( with the idea that RHEL5 will ship with the new one and, gee wouldn't it be nice to see where the surprises are ).

I'm not sure why this is such a bad thing.
