That is _very_ unlikely to be true.

Further above you refer to /usr/include whereas here you refer to
%{buildroot}/usr/include. Obviously, with %buildroot being a temporary
directory only, g++ does not know about it at all. %buildroot expands
to a temporary path somewhere in the rpmbuild tree.

At the time of writing this mail, Firefox did not succeed in downloading

status, but no further.
