Actually it looks like a packaging bug.  nemiver-devel-0.5.1-1.fc9.i386
has a require of nemiver-0.5.1-1.fc9, which nemiver-0.5.1-1.fc9.x86_64
satisfies.  Usually a -devel package will have a .so symlink to an
actual library file that is in an arch specific package, which is how
the arch specific multilib package gets pulled into the repo.

What is it about the nemiver-devel.i386 that absolutely requires
nemiver.i386 instead of nemiver.x86_64?
