Yeah... nobody's _ever_ mentioned that we shouldn't be installing all
those wrong-arch packages. Ever.
I thought there _was_ a bug for it in FC6, actually. I wouldn't swear to
it though.
Anyway, spot has retracted his claim that splitting the package is a
'dirty hack' and seems inclined to agree that it is in fact the way
forward, in accordance with bug #235757. So we are going to go ahead and
split perl from libperl after all.
