Run one of the RHEL3 workalikes such as WhiteBox or Scientific Linux, and 
point your yum  (or apt in the case of Scientific Linux) at kde-redhat's 
apt/yum repository.  An hour or so later (depending upon you bandwidth) you 
can have KDE 3.3 on a RHEL3-like system.  Or, for that matter, buy real RHEL3 
WS and do the same.  Rinse and repeat as necessary.

I have a couple of WhiteBox installations with KDE 3.3, and a couple of 
Scientific Linux installations running KDE 3.3.  Both work, and work well.  
See www.whiteboxlinux.org for WhiteBox and www.scientificlinux.org for 
Scientific Linux.
