[fedora-arm] Re: [Rpm-maint] [patch,rfc] assorted changes for arm

I don't think that the "j" makes a lot of sense.  I've never seen any
code that actually makes use of the 'j'.

Also do you have any provisions for specifying "vfp" support?  If not,
you may want to consider that as another permutation (if you are trying
to be "complete".)
