Since this came up on IRC, and I need to run, let me note: Note. I changed this for a *very specific reason*. Without this, and if you don't have /proc explicitly mounted, RPM will default to armv5tel. Since (at least for now), we have no business building armv5tel on armv7 systems, it's better to make sure nobody is building armv5tel. (trust me, I was up until 8am this morning making sure our chroot does the right thing out of the box if you just clone it and go - so please *don't* arbitrarily change that macro patch or revert it. It's not "wrong". It's quite right, it's deliberate, and it's helpful).
