Just remember to use the rpm --root option to put them in the image!  (I got caught on that one myself once.)

I wouldn't suggest
blowing away your cluster just to get recent 
PBS/Maui.  Alternatively, you can try to just snag those RPMs from
OSCAR's 
CVS.
http://cvs.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/oscar/oscar/packages/
rpm -e the old ones,
rpm -ivh the new ones.
You may have to re-run the pbs post_install scripts... depends on what
the 
rpms remove.  I'm not sure which version of PBS is currently
available in 
OSCAR's CVS.
good luck-
