I am a Fedora Core 5 PPC64 user and am curious about the 'yum--enablerepo' command. If I wanted to run 'yum --enablerepo=atrpmsinstall w32codec' would yum be able to sort out whether there was a PPCor PPC64 version of "w32codec" or not? Do all repositories also have PPCand PPC64 versions or are there only certain repositories that containPPC and PPC64 versions, like FreshRPMS?

AFAIK, the "w32codec" package contains DLLs taken from Windows, whichare executable i386 files. They're only going to be available for i386platforms.
