What makes you think people won't ask why x86 hasn't updated to -1.2? If version numbers don't match in _any_ way, people will undoubtedly be confused. And who can blame them? I find decimals in the pkgrel to be overly confusing myself. Frankly, I would just bump the pkgrel and release a new package for x86 as well, even if it's an identical package. Arch already requires lots of bandwidth (come on xdelta! :D) and I doubt these situations arise frequently.
