My concern is that the same SRPMS are used for all arches. Its not a
concern when dealing with JUST i386, but starting with fedora core 1,
we'll have x86_64 to deal with, and possibly ppc in the future. Instead
of duplicating all the SRPMS across all the arches, I chose to maintain a
single SRPM directory, above the basearch.

Good suggestion.

I wish to use something close to that, but maintain my SRPM links for
multiarch space concerns.
