Had a conversation with seth on irc, and it looks like this is a
multilib bug.

In the meantime, I have made a workaround for this by releasing
    firmware-addon-dell-1.2.11.fc6.1.noarch.rpm 
and
    firmware-addon-dell-1.2.11.fc6.1.{i386,x86_64,ia64}.rpm

So that people who are on multilib systems will get the updated code.
Should hit the repos tomorrow.
