Impatience got the better of me, and I just did 'rpm -Uvh xorg*'  That 
seems to have done the trick except for the fact that X can't seem to 
find the existence of my mouse any more:

Cannot open device /dev/psaux
No such device.

/dev/psaux exists, and has the same major/minor, ownership & perms as on 
my RH9 box.  argh
