Thanks but I've been doing specs for maybe 4 or 5 years now. I know all about 
that. The problems I was referring to was the compile time options and macros 
set in the global rpmmacros. For some reason some apps don't recompile 
correctly on the athlon without tweaking the code accordingly. It may be the 
configure scripts causing the problems. I'm not sure about that either. I can 
patch configure scripts somewhat but most the time unless it's something like 
looking for a newer version of autoconf I'm not really sure where to start. 

Thanks however as this thread may turn into something very usefull for other 
users when they run across it. 

On a side note i can post also the procedure for doing auto builds and stuff. 
I think I still have it around if anybody is interested.
