Take for example, how a x86_64 tree is built:

a) first, you fill in all the x86_64 packages
b)  then for packages in comps, if an x86_64 version doesn't exist,
    try and get an i386 version

basearchonly="true" means don't include this package in situations
such as b).  i.e., no i386 apmd on x86-64.
