Please supply pointer (i.e. URL, attachments won't work) to tarball of your database: cd /var/lib tar czvf /tmp/rpmdb-100732.tar.gz rpm and I will try to get you a fix.
I have the exact same problem. Same versions of Red Hat and RPM. Here is the URL to a tarball of my rpm database: http://osl-www.colorado.edu/~stpierre/rpmdb-100732-jasp.tar.gz
