No, RHEL won't upgrade.  But those who compile-their-own (because they 
want something newer than 1.8) will have to use the Gtk+ GUI.  (I roll 
my own--including some internal dissectors--and push it out to a few 
hundred machines via an (internal) yum repository.)

Gerald did mention that we'd only need to get rid of one thing to make 
the Qt GUI compatible with RHEL 6:

But that seems unlikely.
