Beware - the buildsystems on koji are strictly non-multilib (as
opposed to mock, the standard fedora cfg files of which once made it
non-multilib, but don't anymore).
So, even if you manage to massage the buildreqs so it builds fine
locally, it will never build on koji.

Yes, learned that yesterday when trying to build an app that includes
a ix86-only binary.
