There's a good reason for that: RHEL4 is supposed to be stable and they 
don't go in for major upgrades of components.

I wouldn't do it that way.  Centos.org has yum and an "extras" repo that 
provides, among other things, PHP5 and a bunch of dependencies -- see 
the web site.

I'd still think twice about doing that though because upgrading to RHEL5 
is probably more attractive. (Before you ask: yes, you do have a license 
for that; you have an RHEL license, it's not version specific.)  RHEL5 
has php5 and you'll have the benefit of it being covered by whatever 
support level you currently have.
