A couple comments that are pretty minor:

- The way the package is done at the moment, it doesn't enable use of mkimage
for cross building.  Overall, that isn't a big deal as Fedora doesn't have
in-distro cross compilers but if some show up it might be a good idea to see if
we can provide that.

- This will fail on sparc, s390, MIPS, ia64, or ARM.  Those aren't currently
official secondary arches for Fedora, however work is on-going for all those at
the moment.  It might be good to eventually have ExcludeArch directives for them
(or work with the secondary architecture teams to enable building there).

Aside from the minor buildroot issue, I don't see anything that would prevent
this package from being approved.  Be sure to apply for cvs_extras in the Fedora
Accounts System so that you can be sponsored.
