CentOS 5.6 has PHP 5.3.3, but the package name is php53 not php. I might add something about this to mediawiki.org since it's come up a few times now.
I think you might want to bake that note right into the installer, since that's what was giving me a hint about what to look for. GD is actually php-gd, too -- that's what it wanted and didn't have, IIRC.
No, wait; that wasn't enough either. :-}
