If you want any given SRPM, just get it from the repo you want it from. I 
didn't consider that they'd be different across OS versions, so I'm 
inclined to simply delete any other copies I ever posted.

I have no idea why it would matter, but if you want the SRPM generated by 
RH6 or CentOS 6, you certainly can get it.
