Looks like two different versions of gcc are available

CentOS:
http://mirrors.kernel.org/centos/5/os/SRPMS/gcc-4.1.2-46.el5.src.rpm
http://mirrors.kernel.org/centos/5/os/SRPMS/gcc44-4.4.0-6.el5.src.rpm

And a 3rd version for RHEL
RHEL:
http://mirrors.kernel.org/redhat/redhat/linux/enterprise/5Server/en/os/SRPMS/gcc-4.1.2-46.el5_4.1.src.rpm
http://mirrors.kernel.org/redhat/redhat/linux/enterprise/5Server/en/os/SRPMS/gcc43-4.3.2-7.el5.src.rpm
http://mirrors.kernel.org/redhat/redhat/linux/enterprise/5Server/en/os/SRPMS/gcc44-4.4.0-6.el5.src.rpm

So perhaps just the gcc43 package is missing from CentOS, but you
can go to 4.4 if you want a newer version.
