_All_ the Fedora core packages are built i686 optimised

So they run on i386 and are .i386.rpm but i686 optimised. The packages in
.i686 form are packages containing functionality that won't run on i386
and are carefully chosen because it matters in those packages alone that
i686 instructions can be used.
