Will this C-code introduction make yum itself move from a noarch RPM
into an i386 / x86_64 rpm ?  Since I'm not a programmer, just a Perl and
Python hacker, it's not clear to me how this C code would change the
rpmbuild process for yum itself.

Other that this, I love the idea of a parsing speedup.  The initial
benchmarks look great!

Thanks.
