The packages get built just as a manner of course, our build system
builds everything across all of the arches for RHEL (x86, ia64, x86_64,
s390, s390x, ppc, ppc64).  The critical missing piece really is the
kernel and then just making sure things work.  The fact that they build
is only the first piece of the puzzle :)

Cheers,
