Hmmm, something subtle then. srpm's have had arch/os tags for ages.

Lemme see if I can see what the problem is. 4.4.2 is likely similar  
to 4.4.1.

FYI: rpm -qp --yaml foo*.rpm will show all header contents in rather  
readable form.
A diff between builds with HEAD and 4.4.1 should pop out any  
differences.
