BTW.. for other people in the same boat (installing csync2 v1.29 onto RHEL4)
here was the steps used:

* install librsync librsync-devel RPM's from Dag's repo

* install libtasn1 and libtasn1-devel RPM's from Dries repo

* force install sqlite and sqlite-devel RPM's (v2 ones) from Dag's repo
(you'll have to manually download them and "rpm -ivh --force etc" them because
RHEL4/SL4 comes with a sqlite and sqlite-devel v3)

* install gnutls and gnutls-devel RPM's from base repo (libgcrypt-devel and
libgpg-error-devel dependencies get installed also if you're using yum)

* extract the csync2-1.29 tarball into a directory

* applying Clifford's csync2.patch to modify the confgiure.ac file there
(manually do it if the patch file doesn't work)

* re-run autogen.sh in the source directory, this re-creates the "configure"
script

* re-tar the new csync2-1.29 tree (with the patched configure script) and make
sure it's called csync2-1.29.tar.gz

* move the tarball into /usr/src/redhat/SOURCES

* re-enter the csync2-1.29 directory and run "rpmbuild -ba csync2.spec", this
will build the csync2 RPM

* run "rpm -Uvh /usr/src/redhat/RPMS/i386/csync2-1.29-1.i386.rpm" to get it
installed

Now you can configure the /etc/csync2.cfg file on your nodes.

Michael.
