Rolled my own from the 3.2.0 srpm.

How do you do this at install? Wouldn't that be cleaner? I suppose a
rpm command with a --queryformat ARCH string would list all that is x86
and I couild pipe that into a remove command? Any ideas on how to do this
cleanly?

I have to learn more about mock, I just a trivial build root...
