It's unlikely that the binary RPM will work, but if you get the source
RPM it *should* build on 6.2, though you might have to upgrade RPM on
your 6.2 machine (if you haven't already).
I'm running 7.1beta (compiled from source tarball) on multiple 6.2
machines. It's not too painful to manage because everything goes into
/usr/local/pgsql by default--it doesn't scatter files all over the
machine.
