It is not missing but not supported. rpmforge does not ship i386 rpms in
the x86_64  build. If you use protectbase or priorities plugin you won't
see that updates anyway. And if you really want to upgrade base packages
you have to live with it. So either install the yum plugins and stick
with the base-version or remove the i386 versions of the packages to
upgrade.
