rpm usually is good about maintaining backwards compatibility, so usually using an older rpm in the guest than on the host is fine. > Do you think, this is the problem?

Try and understand the problem better by doing the things mach does in that stage by hand until you figure out a hack to make it work. This is incidentally what the rewrite in mach3 partly was for.
