'rm -rf /compat/linux' between the first deinstall and the reinstall would probably have licked it. It sounds to me like a lib got corrupted, causing ldconfig to segfault; the deinstall didn't remove it (because it doesn't remove files that don't match the md5 checksum recorded in /var/db/pkg), rpm didn't overwrite it when you tried to reinstall, and the post-install script probably tried to run ldconfig, which again segfaulted due to a corrupt lib.
