SmartPM's resolution logic is working extremely well in my recent
testing, and seems more advanced than APT's pinning.  Based on the prior
Firefox.i386 thread for using i386 plug-ins and libraries, I'm going to
come up with a configuration to "pin" select i386 on x86-64.

I'll start with Fedora Core/Extras/Livna.ORG and then more onto
CentOS/Plus/Extras/DAG, which should be similar in packages.  At least
they have been so far (I just had my FC3 box in front me at the time).
