There's a rule in the OCaml packaging guidelines that we should package
the best possible binaries only -- ie. native, if the platform supports
native compilation.  (And for a very long time, OCaml on Fedora's supported
architectures has always had native compilation).

Generally, each source tarball should go in a separate SRPM.  There is a
packaging guideline rule for this too IIRC.
