Nope... You're screwed.

Ok, there's a way.
Go to the rpm site (rpm.com), and get the tar version. Install that in
/usr/local/bin
Then (while still logged in), re-arange your path to find the new rpm
first:
export PATH=/usr/local/bin:$PATH
Now use the "good" version of RPM to remove the broken bits, and
re-install them.
Once they're fixed, log out, and log back in to fix your path, then
un-install the /usr/local version of RPM, and you should be back in
business.
