One of my scripts just spotted the existance of:

   309/i386/errata/SL/RPMS/tcltk-8.3.5-92.8.src.rpm
   309/x86_64/errata/SL/RPMS/tcltk-8.3.5-92.8.src.rpm

I assume that the src.rpm files should have been elsewhere.  Oddly enough 
my script noticed not because they are .src.rpm files but because they 
claim to be ARCH=ppc!

$ rpm -qp --queryformat '%{NAME} %{VERSION} %{RELEASE} %{ARCH}\n' 309/i386/errata/SL/RPMS/tcltk-8.3.5-92.8.src.rpm 309/x86_64/errata/SL/RPMS/tcltk-8.3.5-92.8.src.rpm
tcltk 8.3.5 92.8 ppc
tcltk 8.3.5 92.8 ppc

I don't normally check the arch of src.rpms so this may be perfectly 
normal, but it seems a bit odd. Not that it is your fault of course!
