There's a RHEL 5/gcc4.1 build on the scoreboard at:
http://www.dre.vanderbilt.edu/scoreboard/tao.html

Maybe you could check the options it uses and compare to yours. I
scanned the ChangeLog quickly for changes in this area since x.5.10 -
I didn't see anything that jumped out, but maybe when Johnny Willemsen
gets to work he can shed some light as well - Remedy runs the
above-mentioned RHEL 5 build.
