So the question is: can Arch be configured/tricked into an rpm install?

Does their installer actually require use rpm to install, or just wants rpm to be there? Most distros allow you to install rpm, Arch is no different except it is in aur:

aur/rpm 5.2.1-1 (153)
    The RedHat Package Manager.  Don't use it instead of Arch's 'pacman'.

If it actually uses rpm for the process, this is probably not the solution. Two package managers at once is not a good thing.
