You --must-- compile and install the last version of
gd, the gd version on RHEL 5 and 5.1 is broken, also
on centos and fedora core 8.

Be sure to replace the old gd version on /usr/lib,
also check the simlinks on /usr/lib, then run ldconfig
as root.

If you use mapserver with phpmapscript install php-gd
with yum.

Hope this helps.

Saludos.
