[rhn-users] Recompiling packages

Hi,

I need to recompile the rhdb (postgres) database.
I only need to add 1 or 2 flags to configure and
keep the rest as the standard installation.

I have installed the src rpm.

I don't know how to go about it from here.
I want to make sure that all is in compliance
with standard RH methodology (if there is such).

Do I just un tar the source and hit compile with my 
added flags?
If that is so then how do I produce a bin rpm for install.

I'm really new with rpm but familiar with compiling from
source.

Grateful for any and all assistance!

/ Henrik
