Will this also fix a similar update problem on x86_64 systems?  An
extract from a yum log follows.  The update process is bringing in 
        xulrunner-1.9-0.60.beta5.fc9.i386.rpm 
(why?) even though a more recent version 
        xulrunner-1.9.0.1-1.fc9.i386.rpm
exists on at least some repositories.  A complete log of the update is
attached.
