I removed the '*legacy*rpm' inclusion rules, grabbed the entire tree, and just 
hardlinked against our local fedora/redhat mirrors.  I found at least one 
package (tzdata) that didn't follow the "legacy" naming convention which 
needed to be updated on my older servers.

fedora/3/updates/i386/tzdata-2006a-2.fc3.1.noarch.rpm
