[rhelv5-list] Files shared between x86_64 and i386 packages

Hello,

On an x86_64 system, I have removed a bunch of irrelevant i386-packages,
such as apr.i386, but kept apr.x86_64. However, now "rpm -V apr" reports:

missing   /usr/share/doc/apr-1.2.7
missing  d /usr/share/doc/apr-1.2.7/CHANGES
missing  d /usr/share/doc/apr-1.2.7/LICENSE
missing  d /usr/share/doc/apr-1.2.7/NOTICE

The same phenomenon applies to a great number of other packages on the
system where the installer chose to install both i386 and x86_64 versions
initially (but where I've since removed the i386 version).

Is there a way to remove a package such that RPM doesn't remove files
with this kind of shared ownership?
