Sorry, I didn't finish writing that sentence.

We could just make the mmn include the arch for httpd, to avoid changing 
all mod_* packages, as far as I can tell.

httpd
 Provides: httpd-mmn = 20051115-x86-64, httpd-mmn = 20051115

 /usr/include/httpd/.mmn contains 20051115-x86-64

so all future mod_* package rebuilds pick up the arch-specific mmn 
without change, and httpd is backwards-compat with old packages.

Does that seem reasonable?  (We should make this list lamp-devel@ or 
something :)

Regards, Joe
