I'm adding ExcludeArch for now (until we get to the root of the
problem).  However, I'm hitting a problem.

Even though I've specified "ExcludeArch: arm", the build system is
building it on an ARM host:
http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=5835021

Did I specify the ExcludeArch directive incorrectly

As it's noarch it can be built on any arch.
