perl5.10.0 is not available on 10.4, so any package that has
perl-version variants must have its 5100 variant made unavailable on
10.4 also. The Distribution field is a positive assertion, so the form
you see would have to be updated to:

Distribution: (%type_pkg[perl] = 5100) 10.5, (%type_pkg[perl] = 5100) 10.6

to make the 5100 variant available on 10.6 as well as 10.5.

I thought x86_64 was an Architecture variable, not a Distribution one?
Maybe you're conflating two different issues (or have one problem
affecting another symptom somewhere else)?
