All I can say is that the one used for the rawhide repository works. I
think it's run on a rhel5 host too.
A working version will have long hashes in the repodata filenames.
FYI, I updated createrepo on plague-server (where the repodata is
generated) to the version from rawhide and told the push script to pass
"--unique-md-filenames" to createrepo for the Fedora free repo. If there
are problems please let me know (next push is about to happen in an
hour or two); if everything works fine I'll enable it for the other
repos (EPEL, nonfree) as well.
