[Yum] yum on RHEL AS release 3 taroon 4 on dell 64 bit HW

Yum is not installed on this 64-bit dell which is running redhat 
enterprise 3. I am trying to install from source because of the 64-
bitness and can't find rpm. I downloaded the 2.4 tarball from duke and 
ran make, it output some stuff 
make[1]: Entering directory blah blah
echo "Nothing to do"

And seemed to indeed do nothing. INSTALL file just says "run make, run 
make install if you're a masochist, better to make an RPM". I have no 
idea how to make an RPM and a quick google has left me not much wiser 
and reluctant to become a FE just to install yum. Yum FAQ seems to 
have nothing to say on this topic. Googling yum & 64 bit gets me 
nothing.

I'm not the person who installed the OS, I don't have the original 
disks, and I can't (much as I'd like) install centos or fedora.

How do I install yum on this machine?

TIA
Dave
