Bob,

What's the output of,

# rpm -q --queryformat '%{NAME}-%{VERSION}-%{RELEASE}.%{ARCH}\n' rpm

The contents of,

# cat /etc/rpm/platform

And the output of,

# rpm --eval '%_arch'

Also, did you re-install rpm by forcing an upgrade in place of rpm with,

# rpm -Uvh --force rpm-4.4.2-47.el5.i386.rpm

Just some more things to try,

-Ross
