[Fedora-packaging] Avoid a 32 bits package from being pushed into 64 bits repository

Hello,

I co-maintain a package that contains a library that is used as module 
for a server.
The 32 bits version of this library is pushed automatically into the 64 
bits repositories (i.e. in epel6),
which doesn't make much sense, since the 64 bits version of the server 
won't run with the 32 bits
libraries.

This wouldn't be a big problem, but the pushed 32 bits rpm has a dependency
on the 32 bits server, so then I will get complains (with reason) about 
the broken package.

globus-gridftp-server-progs is the server, and dpm-dsi is the module.

So my question is: how should I approach this? I got some suggestions in 
this ticket
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=957588

Is there any way I can prevent this rpm from being copied into the 64 
bits repositories?

Regards.
