that's me doing a yum -d 10 install beowulf with today's snapshot where
beowulf is an empty package that runs some %post magic and depends on
all the beowulf packages including bporc-nodules. It still wants to
install the athlon arch.

Should *install*, yes, run no. At least, not kernel modules built with
althon symbols.

And, of course, this installs the right arch, i686 and proper deps that
bproc-modules uses.
What I'm trying to do here is make an easy, automated way to get all the
packages to make a RK box into a beowulf head node. Hence the "beowulf"
package.
