There's two issues here:

1) RPM can't recognize Athlon, it recognizes it as
i686, so if you have an Athlon you have to
buildarchtranslate i686 to Athlon, which you can do in
/usr/lib/rpm/rpmrc

2) Mandrake still has incorrect buildarchtranslate
lines in the system /usr/lib/rpm/rpmrc, translating
everything to i586.

So unless someone fixes the RPM arch detection code
itself, you have to deal with issue #1 yourself by
editing rpmrc.  Issue #2 someone at Mandrake needs to
fix at some point.

Yes, but those are compiled by packagers in their home
directories with their own .rpmrc

Halfway, but not totally.
