But that's not installed when the SRPM is built, so you can't use macros
defined in qemu-srpm-macros.

Looking at <https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/DynamicBuildRequires>,
I think you would have to add:

%generate_buildrequires
echo qemu-srpm-macros

And then make the use of qemu_arches macro conditional so that parsing
does not fail while qemu-srpm-macros is not installed.  I'm not sure if
this is the intended use case for %generate_buildrequires.

Thanks,
Florian
