Thanks Ryan!
I couldn't quite get the cpio to work in this case.  I think the reason was, it was
probably working ok, but I had no idea where it was installing.  Btw, shouldn't it
be:
rpm2cpio nameof.rpm > nameof.cpio
..?
Anyway, I had no idea rpm pkg was there, it was hiding under /misc that's why I
didn't see it before. So inspired by all that I got rpm working, installed the
thing, and now I'm getting a core dump, but at least it dumps on the executable.
;-)
Thanks!
