I don't think you can update them since you installed via rpm. You would first have to add the sources via cvs then you can use cvs to upgrade after that.

IBM has a free CVS Tutorial (http://www-105.ibm.com/developerworks/education.nsf/linux-onlinecourse-bytitle/A5C4A0AF4296C66886256A0E005DE112?OpenDocument)

You should be able to find rpm's for newer versions of gcc than came with RH 6.0. I'd try RedHats site first, then some of the other places like rpmfind. Then the ol' "rpm -Uvh <packagename.rpm>" stuff.
