The intel compiler is an easy one - you can't compile the kernel

a bunch of other apps) without patches right now. I see your point
though, rpmoptflags would be a trickier one to spot.
I believe at one point, each binary .rpm encoded the values of all
the macros as they were set at build time. Not sure if that's still
the case, and I forget exactly how it was implemented (maybe as a
RPMTAG stored in the .rpm?)
Each binary .rpm also stores the md5 or sha1 of the .src.rpm that it
was built from, which means you can tell whether a binary package was
built from unmodified .src.rpm's.
