Is 1.0.2 shipped on RedHat 5.2 CD's or are you referring to RH 5.1?

The numbering of egcs under Debian is different.  The version that
will be in Debian 2.1, that release that is currently frozen and being
tested, is numbered 2.91.57 to avoid conflicts with release numbering
in gcc.  It appears that 2.91.57 was derived from a 1.1-prerelease
version of egcs.
