I just wanted to clarify this, what will happen if I use %{ix86} anyways?  why not just hardcode i686 in then?  
I see most other packages are i686 already.

This answer is of course correct, but I think you meant that you
wanted to build for ix86 only. That is i386 for F-10, i586 for F-11
and i686 for devel.

You would normally use this:
ExclusiveArch: %{ix86}


But this do not work in plague. Plague would build for ALL ix86 arch available.

Therefore, to achieve the wanted result you should do something like this:

%if 0%{?fedora} >= 12
ExclusiveArch: i686

%endif
%if 0%{?fedora} >= 11
ExclusiveArch: i586
%else
ExclusiveArch: i386
%endif

It's ugly but it works.
