I'm a bit confused. I put "i386-redhat-linux-gnu" into /etc/rpm/platform
while having a /usr/lib/rpm/i386-redhat-linux-gnu containing a modified
version of redhat-rpm-config stuff and i386-linux shipped by rpm 4.5. When
I'm now trying "rpmbuild -ba xyz.spec", i386-linux is favoured over the
i386-redhat-linux-gnu. Is this correct? And if yes, why? This doesn't seem
to match with the magic, you tried me to explain - at least in my eyes. Or
I'm to dumb, that's another possibility... ;)
