	It mean "no architecture", and is used for things (like PHP scripts)
that aren't dependent on any particular architecture (like x86, alpha,
sparc, mips, etc.).  Nothing in horde/imp depends on any particular
platform, so noarch is the appropriate designation.

Call me a moron; I thought about it a bit and realized that after I'd sent my 
message.  Never occured to me before, but now...heh.  Thanks for the info.
