psgml-1.2.5.tar.gz breaks things on RH 9

I have RedHat 9 stock, where font-lock-mode does not work in xml and
sgml modes.  Figuring that this may be fixed in later versions of
psgml mode, I installed psgml 1.2.5.  The install process went without
errors.  The only thing unexpected was that the configure script only
took a couple seconds to run, and the install guide indicated that
this could take a very long time to run.  

After the install, I discovered that it broke html-mode, and didn't
fix the xml/sgml syntax highlighting.  Now I get the following error:

Key sequence C-c C-c - uses invalid prefix characters.

Does anyone know how to fix this?

I thought about updating to the latest emacs, but it looks like a
major effort.  Emacs is *huge*, bigger than linux.  RPMs are a
nightmare; and I wouldn't know which tarballs to install in what
order.  Suppose I start over and build a new machine.  If I install
Gentoo w/ emacs, will it come with psgml, or is psgml still a seperate
install?  Anyone know if there are any issues running psgml on gentoo?
