Since you're building them by hand, you may want to check out
'checkinstall'. It can automagically build an RPM from the "make install"
point (i.e. after ./configure).

Then you install the RPM you just built. Make sure you customize the
version i.e. "apache-1.3.27-gaucho1". Now RPM "knows" you have at least
apache 1.3.27 installed.

Checkinstall is great for "rpm-izing" those situations when only a hand job 
will do.
