All,
I know this more a question for Red Hat, but before I approach my local
Red Hat rep, does anyone on the list know why RHEL6 only implements up
to a version of 2.3.7 yet RHEL7 goes up to a version of 2.4.1.
Basically, I want to know if RHEL6 can accept some elements from the
2.4[.0] release if I ask really really reeeeeeeeeally nicely.

Sure. The issue is that if I pushed 2.4.2 into rhel6 and you start using
features in it, then what happens when you upgrade to RHEL7? RHEL6 is ahead
and there will be feature regressions.

File a rebase RFE request through your support channel and that would be a
good start. Technically there is no reason why RHEL6 can't use 2.4, the ABI is
the same.
