I'm so completely dependent on fou4s that I'm totally stuck when it's
broken.  Time well spent, in other words.  I'd have submitted a patch
if the solution didn't need to be based on a strategic decision.

Yup.  Setting --arch doesn't help either.  I haven't managed to find
a clean workaround.

Unfortunately no.  After a clean install without having patched anything
at all on my x86_64 the picture is something like this:
ram:/var/cache/fou4s # rpm -qa --qf "%{ARCH}\n" | grep i586|wc -l
37
ram:/var/cache/fou4s # rpm -qa --qf "%{ARCH}\n" | grep x86_64|wc -l
1468

You need to trace back through /var/log/fou4s.log to find out=20
which packages have been updated after fou4s 0.13.0 came out.
Lucky there's been very few updates lately, my only issues are=20
with libtiff (the update of which crashed) and libtiff-devel
(which went in with the wrong version).  And of course with new
installations which break utterly and totally when you patch.

Is this something you've been promised by someone or do we need
to pass the hat around?  Yes, I see the smiley.  I'm serious,=20
though.
