If I had only followed the link in your article before posting…

Anyway, I think the maintainer would be more than willing to update the repo if any interest is shown. You can swing by on irc.

http://calimeroteknik.free.fr/arch586/

The page is in French, but something like the google translator should do the trick. In short, the first part is about installing lowarch from scratch and updating and the second one is about setting up the repo for a lowarch installation which has pacman 3.2 (and I suppose higher versions).
