robert-

an easy workaround would be to rebuild new RPMs on your RH7.3 boxes.  it
should be as simple as...

% rpmbuild -ta ganglia-monitor-core-<version>.tar.gz

or it might be

% rpm -ta ganglia-monitor-core-<version>.tar.gz 

on the old systems (i think rpmbuild is relatively new).

or you can just build new RPMs from the source rpms as well.  i don't
think the older libraries should be a problem.  i don't think you'll
need to upgrade.  when you build the RPMs on the older system rpm will
automatically set the library versions back to the older version on the
system it is compiled on.  

it might make sense to remove the dependency manually once we do a
sanity check.

good luck and let us know how it goes
