With EL6 there have been some really strange build roots as well, we might need to make a pragmatic call at some stage on how-to work with or without those. One of the most odd ones is https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=644778 where buildroots even for the same package were different on different architectures; in this case, it 'feels' like its because of the rolling builds where queues ran independently for different architectures. And there is no clean way of working around this, unless you don't mind cross builds waiting for a sync 'pulse' for each package. Can be mitigated to some extent by running packages-as-tasks rather than builds-as-tasks; but then were now talking about spiritual issues subject to wildly divergent interpretation. - KB
