So I managed to keep the working IPA server and 2 x RHEL5 64 bit servers and the one un-configured template of RHEL6.1 64bit client I had. This I used to make client side clones off previously and connected them to IPA server and they worked.

I'm having a hard time following exactly what you are doing, on what 
machine. I think we need to be more systematic.

Can you choose a machine to act as the client and provide the following:

- distro and architecture (e.g. RHEL 6.1 on x86_64)
- rpm -q curl libcurl
- rpm -q ipa-client

On the IPA server:
- rpm -q ipa-server

Start with a client that is not enrolled. If it has previously been 
enrolled run: ipa-client-install --uninstall -U

Now run ipa-client-install and answer the questions as appropriate for 
your install.

If it fails please provide the following:
- any stdout you get from the client install
- attach the full /var/log/ipaclient-install.log
- attach the last 100 lines from /var/log/httpd/error_log from the IPA 
server
