My opinion would be to only have x86_64 and noarch packages available for
the x86_64 build root, and no let any i?86 packages be available to it,
since it makes no sense anyway for a build root.

I've already bumped into this problem myself, and my solution has been to
create a "static" RPMS directory with all i?86.rpm packages removed and
createrepo re-run on top of that. The cleaner fix would be to disable
multiarch support in the yum used for the x86_64 build root, but I don't
think that's possible with the current yum (seth will know for sure ;-)).
