I have not been able to get any errors with -22um.  Additionally a 
problem I used to have long ago whereby rpm would just during some
installations no longer happens (I had originally worked around it
since I didn't know if the bug was in rpm or uml).

The problem I saw twice with -21um was rpm printing a bizarre message
about the package database.  It actually looked like a perl expression
(something like foo -> bar with more punctuation).  This would be 
halfway through 200 packages being installed one at a time.  As an 
uneducated guess, I would suspect a memory mapping failure.
