Follow-up: I just did a quick check... Apparently there's a program
called rpm2cpio that converts for you.  The example I've found shows:

rpm2cpio package.i386.rpm | cpio -ivd dir/subdir/filename

it creates the path structure in your current directory and extracts the
file to that (i.e. "filename" ends up in "./dir/subdir" as you'd
expect).
