In this specific case, I have a 32-bit ISO image, but no machine to build
it on, unless I was to bake it on my own VMware Workstation/Fusion-driven
VM, and use that. It wouldn't be joined to AD, wouldn't be visible from the
internal VPN or network, because it would be running on a machine not
attached to the network, so that may be a dead-end. I'll ping you the
location internally under separate cover, so you can play with it if you
want.

The other solution is to build it on an equivalent CentOS 32-bit image,
which is RPM-for-RPM compatible with what RHEL provides, then copy the
binaries internally, and use -those- binaries to produce a compiled version
after that.

I realize it's not the best solution, but may get you past this
cross-compile hurdle.
