How would this affect my dellsysidplugin found in the
firmware-addon-dell RPM? I had to manually re-process mirrorlist
variable because it was processed earlier than my plugin hook could get
to the yumvars.

I sent a note to the list last week asking for
a hook to modify yumvars before they are used. It seems that this would
probably be a good opportunity to add this.
