Guess that would be my bad.  :)  I noticed a stuck message and it not 
being spam figured why not release it.

More importantly they are packages needed to be self hosted but not 
included in RHEL3.  By the stated goals for WBEL I can't outright add 
packages to the base OS yet it should be self hosting, so I stuck em in a 
side directory.

Sounds like a good thing.  I know I'm going to want an AMD64 machine when 
the price drops just a bit more.  Good to know there will be something to 
run on it.
