The rpm implementation does not control what strings are used to identify arch in packages.
For example, PLD is using "pentium3", "pentium4", and "amd64" while
Red Hat is using "i586", "i686" and "x86_64" with essentially the same
meanings, and all of those strings are being carried in default rpm configuration.
The pentium 3 is definatly a i686 arch... the p2 and pentium pro as
well...
Right!
But "pentium3" is most definitely not an an "i686" arch for rpm, because the strings are not identical,
and because FC and RHEL do not build *.pentium3.rpm packages.
