Ahh, yes.  There's a level of quoting needed by the shell,
which is removed when the command is executed and shows up
in ps.

It's not clear how you're using these macros, but if you're
toggling settings, the %bcond_with and %bcond_without
options may be useful.  Then you can enable/disable using
--with and --without on the rpmbuild command line.
