After looking bug report (official of not), it seems disabling ntpl was a very 
bad idea, on ppc rpm hang, some poeple experience same issue on i586.

Christian solve the issue by disabling nptl on ppc.

I disabled nptl for poeple having old kernel, as these kernel (< 2.4.20) are 
no longer supported (was in Mandrake 9.1), I will update rpm to -6mdk with 
the normal nptl behaviour (aka enable).

I plan to add a patch to solve a current issue I explain here:
https://lists.dulug.duke.edu/pipermail/rpm-devel/2005-May/000428.html

In summary, if the transaction have a color (the case on 64bits), the 
architecture is not check. So this allow to install a ppc package on amd64.
Gustavo Nimeyer confirm removing the "&& !tscolor" should works.

If you found problem about building rpm on other arch than amd64/i586, it's 
time to said me.
