http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/19701/yum-how-can-i-view-variables-like-releasever-basearch-yum0:

$arch This will be replaced with your architecture as listed by 
os.uname()[4] in Python.

$basearch This will be replaced with your base architecture in yum. For 
example, if your $arch is i686 your $basearch will be i386.
