Sorry to not have any link handy, but AFAIK, you can use mock to help out here. setarch i386 mock -r fedora-8-i386 rebuild freetype*.src.rpm (Where the freetype srpm has the bytecode_interpreter and subpixel_rendering flags already set to the values you want.) You need to add the user building the packages to the mock group first. -- Todd OpenPGP -> KeyID: 0xBEAF0CE3 | URL: www.pobox.com/~tmz/pgp ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ No one gets too old to learn a new way of being stupid.
