Same here with rpm-4.0.3-0.8mdk. The only way I could get this to work was to 
download rpm-4.0.2 from rpm.org and tie a link from /usr/lib/librpm.so.0 to 
the one created by rpm-4.0.2. Get loads of things like 'error: unrecognized 
db option: "verify" ignored', but at least it works so long as I don't try to 
rpm -e anything !!!

I experiened the same problems.  The way I solved it was to install rpm
via the tar.gz (from the www.rpm.org site) -- I built the rpm package as
the prebuilt binaries didn't work.  After installing the new rpm
package, I upgraded my locales packages (noted it on an earlier post)
and then updated my rpm package -- everything seems to be back to
normal.
