Ugh ... I did this patch long ago and it is disappointing that it wasnt
considered at all.

At the time I was trying to port KingSoft's Office and some Microsoft stuff (an
R variant that includes accelerated math libraries) which offer RPMs but of
course are not directly related to RedHat or CentOS.

The idea was that after setting the repository and the directory I was able to
fetch both the X64 and i386 distfiles. It saved me a lot of trouble and didn't
interfere with the existing CentOS support.

You should reconsider.
