Strange i386/x86_64 behavior

[Matthias Saou]

Hi again,

I'm really confused : "yum list pam-devel" tells me that the x86_64
version is installed, but "yum -d 5 install pam-devel" then says "No other
pam-devel installed, adding to list for potential install", and goes ahead
and installs the i386 package :-( Those i386 pam-devel and zlib-devel are
causing my php build to fail miserably, and I don't know how to keep them
from being installed.
