Its stock FC2 except for the db42 libraries:
# uname -a
  Linux mail 2.6.5-1.358 #1 Sat May 8 09:00:01 EDT 2004 i586 i586 i386 GNU/Linux
# uname -p
  i586
# rpm -qa --queryformat "%{arch}\t%{name}-%{version}-%{release}\n" glibc
  i386    glibc-2.3.3-27
# rpm -qa --queryformat "%{arch}\t%{name}-%{version}-%{release}\n"
  i586    kernel-2.6.5-1.358
# rpm -qa --queryformat "%{arch}\t%{name}-%{version}-%{release}\n" db42
  i386    db42-4.2.52-0.1

Here's the db4/nptl/i586 problem:

That bug's been around for over a year now.
