This brings up a bigger question; How does maven want to handle OS
information in the repo?? To be successful w/ other languages like C, the
repo will need to delineate information such as "i586" and "linux". Are
these to be rolled into the groupId?? That doesn't smell right. Seems that
we may need new Artifact Resolvers that understand this sort of info
natively and can transparently supply the the correct pieces to the URL.
