I would contact whoever is maintaining their FAQ to find out where it 
is. (R Jones at Redhat)
Maybe it's only in the RHEL supplementary disk.
I think it's a bit strange that he is the one who wrote the FAQ, and has 
a link to his own rpm area, and that area *doesn't* have the package 
that he says should be in there.
