CentOS - Dec 2011 - Question on httpd

I have been requested to ensure the httpd on a server is version 2.2.21 
or later.

How do I verify that?

On CentOS 5.7 x86_64 it says its version 2.2.3-53.

is that equivalent to 2.2.21 in RedHat land with the way they do versions?

Thanks.

Ask whomever is mandating the specific version what security issue
they're worried about then pull up rpm -q --changelog httpd and see if
it's listed in there as being backported.  RHEL6 doesn't even ship
with httpd 2.2.21.
