What's the pain?  You aren't changing the filename, you are changing 
what architecture you compile for.  You change the RPM configuration 
line for i486 to -march=i486 -mcpu=i686 or pentium4, whatever you guys 
are using now, and run rpmbuild.  The filenames would automatically come 
out with i486 in them, the same way that they automatically come out 
with i386 in them.
