When I installed FC3 x86_64, I got both for Mozilla, but only
x86_64 for Firefox.  Closer inspection showed that's exactly
what the packages were in the repository.

Yep.  I have tried to "tap" the FC3 i386 repository with both
APT and YUM and not always received what I expected.  From
my 2nd/3rd-hand understanding (i.e., I haven't done it ... yet),
SmartPM let's you do all sorts of things to resolve this (like
repository priority and other details).

If I find a spare 4-6 hours in the next few weeks, I'm going to
use SmartPM and document exactly how x86_64 platforms can
benefit from its use.
