It's the engineering tools, if you run them on whichever is the latest
version of RHEL.  Because the developers who produce the tools don't
have
access to the latest OS until the same time when you do.

That's not true in general.  Fedora releases cycle much faster than RHEL

You seem to be taking my specific comments, about my specific environment,
and misinterpreting them as some sort of generalization.

Yes, I did take the subject of your 2nd sentence here to mean RHEL/centos, not your own programs:

   "The engineering tools are only supported on the latest
    2 versions of RHEL/centos.  Of which, the latest one
    is perpetually unstable."

And I'm only stating my own reasons, because of your obnoxious comments that
judgementally hinted there's no good reason to use an old OS.

And my reply wasn't intended to be judgmental about your use, but to point out to others that in my experience Centos5 is a perfectly stable platform for subversion - to counter what I misread as your claim to the contrary. Sorry about that - and good luck when you do update.
