Interesting - I realized that the existing spec file for rpm2html 
included a call to an "autogen.sh" script in %pre, which in turn called 
configure, as well as a separate configure call in %build. After I 
removed the second configure call (moving its arguments to the autogen. 
sh script, which passes them back to configure), rpm2html stopped crashing!

See 
http://rpm.nogin.org/regularly_built/rh80/rpm2html-1.8.2-3.rh8.0.i386.html 
for source and binary RPMs.

P.S. I would suggest adding a working rpm2html to the "stable" channel 
of Fedora Legacy 8.0
