I don't think I fully addressed the question before, so allow me to
clarify. EL3 binaries are linked against different versions of
libraries than are in EL4, and in some cases library names have
changed. Glibc and kernel differences may also cause issues. If you
want to install an EL3 package, I'd rebuild the srpm at a minimum, but
if dag suddenly stopped building it or releasing it for a particular
EL version, he may have a good reason for this. It may be advisable to
ask why it was not built/released for EL4.

Hope that more clearly answers the question.

It does.  Thank you very much.
