Not true. Btw, the report explicitly refers to "fedora-updates-12-i386"
and "fedora-updates-12-x86_64" in two of its section titles and lists
many packages found in those repos.

Doesn't matter, because your quote is truncated. The two .i686 lines
you've quoted are about openvrml.i686 in the fedora-12-x86_64 repo (!).
It's multilib breakage. Some time between F12 updates and F13 you've
killed openvrml-devel, so openvrml is no longer chosen for the
multilib repo compose. Some packagers fix that with "self-obsoletes".
In the "openvrml" package:

  Obsoletes: openvrml < %{version}-%{release}

That way, openvrml.x86_64 would replace an old/obsolete openvrml.i686,
if installed.
