perl-Net-DNS is available for RHEL4. At least, it's listed when I log into RHN. (According to the release notes for RHEL 4, it was both added to and removed from RHEL 4. How odd.)
The others have been embedded into the regular perl package.
To see for yourself: Download perl-5.8.5-12.1.i386.rpm (RHEL 4's version of perl) from RHN. Run "rpm -qpl perl-5.8.5-12.1.i386.rpm | less" to see what files are included. Confirm that CPAN.pm, DB_File.pm, and CGI.pm are listed. OR Run "rpm -qp --obsoletes perl-5.8.5-12.1.i386.rpm" to see what packages are now included in perl that used to be separate.
