So failed builds are not brushed under the carpet, they are listed
on the following page together with the build log output:

  http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Extras/FC4Status

In particular with the x86_64 failed builds, help is highly appreciated,
since the majority of packagers can't test/debug on x86_64.

The successful builds for that platform should still be considered a
byproduct of rebuilding an i386 src.rpm for x86_64.
