docindex for current RHEL

First, is there a version of docindex/bldindex that someone has already updated to work on 'current" versions of Redhat? If so, just a pointer and ignore the rest of this.

If not, I'm working on automating index rebuilds using the docindex / bldindex scripts available for download.   I am pretty close (I get output now that I've turned "whence" into "which" and "#typeset -u PFINDX" into "declare PFINDX") , but think where I am stumped is on on translating the SCO "hd" command into the Redhat "hexdum" near-equivalent.

# get the full pathname of 'hd' into the command we'll be using:
#CMD="$(which hd) -bda -n 140 "
CMD="$(which hexdump) -c -n 140 "

Thanks in advance
