I went to the rpm ftp site where they keep all their previous versions. Do an incremental upgrade - and don't worry about using RH versions in between. I believe there were 2 (maybe 3 at the most) steps before getting to the 3.0.5-27. Along the way I added a libbzip2 pkg which includes the needed libbz2 file & didn't require upgrading that pkg as well - which would carry other dependency issues. The whole thing took less than an hour over a 56k dialup. Believe me, it's well worth the effort to get to that version of rpm.
