No. It just means that RH 7.1 is the platform that binary was built for (and
on).

You can get 7.1 RPMs out of RedHat's RawHide that are rather recent.
However, the current PGDG set is quite close to what is in RawHide.

FWIW, RedHat 7.1 is currently the RPM reference platform, so the current
RPMset will work fine on RH 7.1.
