Our repo uses -march=armv5te, and the packages are *.armv5tel.rpm
('l' for little endian.)

Using the mach name is the default, and seemed like the most
straightforward option (it's also what most people have been doing
for a while with rpm.)

While this works fine for different ARM arch levels, the only case
where this breaks down is for VFP and iWMMXt and such, since they are
optional and not a property of the arch level, so another solution
needs to be found for those.
