How many non-comment lines do you have in:
   /etc/pango/i386-redhat-linux-gnu/pango.modules

I ended up with only one line and X wouldn't start (neither VESA  nor
native).

I copied the contents from another system as this file is generated (by
who?) and not part of an RPM.

To get in, use the boot option: s  (you might want to remove the rhgb option)
Then "init 3" at the shell prompt (or check the above file).

This might have been the result of a interim RPM (pango?) that messed
things up.  Two other systems, updated later, did not have this problem.
