You should open a ticket for CentOS Stream at <https://issues.redhat.com/> against "RHEL" project and "xorg-x11-util-macros" component. > 2.

You import xorg-x11-util-macros sources under "xorg-x11-util-macros-epel" name and disable building on aarch64, maybe changing the package from noarch to fullarch will be necessary. -- Petr
