I can....

Still hacking away at rebuilding the bind 9 src file, I have added 
openssl-devel, libxml, libxml-devel, numerous updates, and a parser named 
byacc, and now I am closer than ever. This is what I now get at the end of a 
very long compile session....

+ cd /var/tmp/bind-root/usr/share/man
+ tar xjf /usr/src/RPM/SOURCES/bind-manpages.tar.bz2
tar: invalid option -- j
Try `tar --help' for more information.
Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.47472 (%install)  

It is hard to believe but somehow, during the install phase of the "rpm 
--rebuild" process, the process is issuing a tar command with an "j" option. 
Hell, I have never seen a "j" switch, and neither has man tar. Is there 
someway to alter this command? I think it might be the last piece in what has 
been a veritable jigsaw puzzle......

Again thanks to all,
