Quite possibly. Left is a pair of buildhw (hardware builders), buildppc
(power7 boxes, mostly for epel6), and bkernel (kernel and secureboot
builders). We are going to look and see if those can be moved over too
without pain. 

yeah, I think the plan is to do this moving forward (Fedora latest that
is).

It's good for infrastructure as well, in that we don't need to carry
any 'special' rpm or anything if we need to change formats or the like. 

Of course it does mean we could run into breakage if there's breakage
in Fedora land, but thats good to know and fix too.
