Well, I can think of one case where building twice does do the trick, but it requires a changing of the BuildRequires between building. The example is emacs-bbdb and emacs-vm. Both packages require the elisp source of the other package (emacs-bbdb-el and emacs-vm-el) to be in the buildroot if you want bbdb functionality in vm. So the way to achieve that is: a) build emacs-vm without BuildRequires: emacs-bbdb-el b) build emacs-bbdb with BuildRequires: emacs-vm-el c) rebuild emacs-vm with BuildRequires: emacs-bbdb-el added. [Yes, I realize this is ugly] Scripting quirky stuff like that I can see would be hard. What's really needed is some sort of optional BuildRequires directive in RPM, that afaik doesn't yet exist.
