This is pure speculation, but i'd have to guess years. Redhat has not
traditionally changed the versions of any packages in their enterprise
product line once its been released. So what you've got right now in
RHEL3 is what will remain. RHEL4 is rumored to be coming out next
month, so I'd be very surprised if they would change the package
versioning at this stage, especially since I think they announced a
feature freeze quite a while ago. This means you're waiting 2-3 years
for RHEL5.
If you want PG8 then your best hope is FC4 this May.
