[Linux-cluster] RHEL4 spec file - hugemem on x86_64

[Chris Feist]

Unfortunately our build system ignores the "%if" so we have to use the 
BuildRequires: kernel-hugemem.  There's another package that we use which 
provides kernel-hugemem on the archs that don't have a hugemem kernel.  The 
best thing to do is either remove those BuildRequires for the arch you want or 
build with --nodeps.

Thanks,
Chris
