FYI, you can kickstart the x86_64 build without having run pkgorder, but
the i386 RPMs could get installed _after_ the x86_64 RPMs which is a
"Bad Thing" (tm). When the 32-bit version gets installed after the
64-bit version, it's binaries overwrite the 64-bit ones and your system
is broken. The way 32-bit and 64-bit RPMs get installed beside/on top
of each other is yucky.
