You are restating my point. I wanted to make sure rawhide didn't
get ppc64 packages by accident, thus my question. Currently the telnet
ppc.rpm is genereating a Illegal instruction error. As far as I can tell
though (with the file command), it is merely a 32-bit program and so are
the libraries. I guess it's some other bug that was introduced.
mod_webapp is also having trouble.

BTW, what *.ppc64.rpm packages? I don't see any in the rawhide
directory. You must be looking at a different rawhide/ppc directory than
I am.
