Here is what you can do to extract it on 10.3:
Save http://rpm.org/gitweb?p=rpm.git;a=blob_plain;f=scripts/rpm2cpio.sh;hb=HEAD
as rpm2cpio.sh
and do:
sh rpm2cpio.sh <rpm-package> | cpio -id


Sorry, that was the wrong link, the script from rpm5 works though, get it here:

http://rpm5.org/cvs/getfile?f=rpm/scripts/rpm2cpio&v=1.5
