Redhat EL 5 goes as far as 1.0.15.

Redhat EL 6 (just released a few weeks ago) is on 1.2.something I think.

Especially for their EL product, Redhat doesn't change versions much, 
instead backporting fixes as necessary; I'm sure they've been a fan of 
Wireshark's (relatively) recent release/branching policy.

Admittedly RHEL 6 probably "should" have had 1.4. <sigh>
