for red hat 5.2 - you can get this file ...
ftp://src.doc.ic.ac.uk/0-Most-Packages/linux/redhat-contrib/libc6/i386/pvm-3.4.0-2.i386.rpm
and install "rpm -i pvm-3.4.0-2.i386.rpm" on your redhat nodes ...
export PVM_ROOT </usr/pvm3>
and it all works .... 
wondering if any of you tried BSP programs to work using PVM ???
