 I haven't looked at rpm 4.12.0.1, but the rpm5 tarball we have now has the
berkeleydb sources bundled. It doesn't have beecrypt though (but according to
configure.ac it's optional).

 If rpm 4.12.0.1 doesn't have those sources bundled, then it's definitely better
to just add host-beecrypt and host-berkeleydb.
