*ding*

Yup, that's it. It's actually the same on FC4, my pattern recognizer
just had a temporary defect:

[pd at titmouse ~]$ rpm -qf /usr/lib/libg2c.so.0.0.0
compat-libf2c-32-3.2.3-47.fc4
[pd at titmouse ~]$ rpm -qf /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i386-redhat-linux/3.2.3/libg2c.a
compat-gcc-32-g77-3.2.3-47.fc4

(Notice that they're not the same...)

So the point is to install the libf2c thingie, whatever the name is on
RHEL4.
