We run the RPM's for RH 7.3 on our 7.2 install base with no problems.
RPM's as recent as for PostgreSQL 7.4.2 are available here:
ftp://ftp10.us.postgresql.org/pub/postgresql/binary/v7.4.2/redhat/redhat-7.3/

Or you can always compile from source.  There isn't any such thing as a
'supported' package for RH7.2 anyway.
