That's actually attractive to me for other reasons -- for kernel-module
packages we currently have no way of knowing which variants exist
(smp,hugemem,xen0,xenU,etc.). If they were all present in the
kernel-devel package that wouldn't be a problem.

Also, it's impossible to install i586 and i686 kernel-devel packages
side by side. I did my testing on ppc by installing ppc and ppc64
kernel-devel packages together, but that's a special case. Again,
putting them all in one fixes this.
