I think they bundle Python 2.4.5 (!!)

There are some relevant tickets in their trac:

http://www.xbmc.org/trac/ticket/7754 (includes a patch to make xbmc work 
with python 2.6 - I haven't verified or even looked at this patch yet)

http://www.xbmc.org/trac/ticket/7785 (patch to fix a python 2.6 crash)

Also a couple of other potential problems with XBMC and RPM Fusion:

1) We have to exclude libdvdcss support :(
2) RPM Fusion ffmpeg doesn't inlcude libfaac support :(

Maybe this package would be better suited to being held in livna along 
with libdvdcss?
