Carlos, You might want to put together a build environment and roll your own. I tend to do this for a lot of software (as I need to application specific business required patches to several packages). In most cases, you can easily setup a chroot environment of some type, download the source RPM (instead binary), and then compile it. In many cases, when I need to go from 2.6.x up to the next version, I just download the new source file, edit my spec file for postfix, change the version number, run a single command to build it, wait about 4 minutes, then I have a package. (it's easier than it sounds once you've done it a few times).
