The man page specifies:
--define='MACRO EXPR'
Meaning that the macro "%{MACRO}" in your script would be replaced with
the text "EXPR" (in this example case). Something like:
--define='_my_macro `uname -r`'
means that "%{_my_macro}" in the script would be replaced with the
result of the "uname -r" command (the backticks around the uname command
are so the command is executed...just like in the shell).
In other words, the argument to the "--define=" flag consists of two
items: the macro name itself and its definition. The macro name and its
definition must be separated by a space. Because they must be separated
by a space, the whole bit after the "=" must be quoted somehow so the
shell doesn't consume them as two separate items.
