Are you aware that there is a directory on some of the mirrors which 
carry fedoralegacy which supports RHL 7.3 security updates?

Regarding the other programs, I guess trying them out on a clean install 
FC4 and going through the tests would tell you if you were in for a lot 
of work.

Backing up all of your important data and configuration information then 
  starting fresh on another test computer sounds safest to me. (At least 
swapping out the hard drive in case the test fails.)

Sorry not much help.
