I reviewed the posts on the forums but it is still unclear to me: we need to upgrade PHP from our current 5.1.6 to the latest stable, recommended version. Unless we get to 5.2.+ we are blocked from upgrading XOOPS, Word Press, Zen Cart etc. We run
CentOS5 Kernal and CPU: Linux 2.6.18-8.el5 on i686; Apache version 2.2.3
Do we need to upgrade the OS and or Apache before we upgrade PHP? and where exactly is this bleeding edge repository?
Thanks!

Yup, sounds like you may want the bleeding edge repo. You don't need to upgrade anything to be able to use it, it's simply a new repository for CentOS 5.x users.
The following URL explains how you'd go about setting that up:
http://www.virtualmin.com/documentation/id%2Cvirtualmin_bleeding_edge_pa...
After you've set it up, you'll be able to install PHP 5.2.11 from the bleeding edge repo.

VirtualMin is itself is completely isolated from PHP, right? i.e. if the upgrade of PHP causes issues, VirtualMin will not be touched. (I believe you don't use any PHP, right?)

Yes, that is correct.
