I'm wondering: is there some public documentation about doing a full
rebuild for Fedora? Some build scripts would also help people to rebuild
for the more exotic architectures (or optimization flags and maybe
attract a few gentoo users in the process ;)

Btw. The Aurora Sparc Linux distribution has a "rawhide" tree very close
to Fedora.
