Maybe you could mount a live system cdrom (a system fully installed on a cdrom, not an installation cdrom, knoppix comes to mind in the debian wolrd but there must be other live system in redhat world. Then change PATH and other libpaths in /etc/profile. clone your partitions (rsync) on a good disk. check all your installed packages (debsums in the debian world, I don't know the equivalent on fedora), reinstall those found modified.
Some good ideas there... but one rotten bit of this problem is that verifying the binaries with rpm requires grep! Maybe I can work around that...
