forcing BuildArch

[David Halik <dhalik jla rutgers edu>]

Hello all,

Is there a "proper" way to force BuildArch other than in each spec file? 
I've been all through the macros file and elsewhere trying to determine 
what sets off the %%{ARCH} and I haven't seen anything concrete. I'm 
assuming rpm is just doing a uname -m or -p and grabbing the arch for 
itself, but I'd like to just specify a default type since its now wrong. 
In the past we've always built as "sparc64" by default, and with the 
upgrade to rpm-4.4.9 its picking out "sun4u" instead. Naturally this 
confuses our repo. I've been getting around it with BuildArch: sparc64, 
but I figured there has to be a better way to set this in the macros 
files or somewhere else.

Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks again,
-Dave
