The data is not architecutre dependent. It should be endian dependent. If
different architectures blog to the same endian, the package can share with
another architectures. An x86_64 users does not want to install a package in
order to keep compatibie if it is not recommended, because an extra package
means it will take more spaces. 

I wrote a spec sample for zinnia-tomoe. It will be built independently for
little-endian and big-endian. 

https://dl.dropbox.com/u/1352061/zinnia-tomoe/zinnia-tomoe-sample.spec

And I modify the zinnia-tomoe-fixes-makefile.patch. The default installation
path will switch to %{_datadir}. 

Here is koji result:
http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=2132276
SPEC:
https://dl.dropbox.com/u/1352061/zinnia-tomoe/zinnia-tomoe.spec
SRPM:
https://dl.dropbox.com/u/1352061/zinnia-tomoe/zinnia-tomoe-0.6.0.20080911-4.fc12.src.rpm

As we know, maintaining source codes is much more difficult to maintain spec
files, especially for me, not an professional coder. For many packagers, they
have no enough skill to modify the codes. So we can see the best way to modify
the spec file under packaging guideline. If we put endian-dependent data to
%{_libdir}, it will mean that quite many package should be requested to change
their codes. Comparing to codes, it is an easy job to edit spec files. At last,
in my opinion, Fedora should have a new guideline to teach packagers how to
build a endian-dependent package.
