A quick truss cut out:

open64("ftp://rpm.rutgers.edu/foo.rpm", O_RDONLY) Err#2 ENOENT

If you want to see more of the truss output let me know, but yeah, I think 
you're on to it and essentially rpm doesn't understand that it's not a 
local file. By the way, our current rpm 4.1 Solaris 9 production systems 
do take ftp and http files without any issue, so the change must have 
taken place afterwards (not that it narrows it down at all ;). Judging by 
what Tim said you should see the same issue on Solaris 10.

Thank you very much for looking into this Jeff.
