A few things would have to be changed on the infrastructure side, but I
think it's doable. The biggest issue may be that maintainers need to
mark their packages ARCH=noarch as appropriate, and then remember to
upload to a separate directory. The latter could be simplified with the
"cygport upload" proposal, should we decide to do this with noarch in
the first place.
