After reading the feedback, I think we're all on the same page.  I've asked 
the redhat-rpm-config maintainer that these macros be added into the 
redhat-rpm-config package so that they will be available on the installed 
system.

For devel that means:

%fedora 7
%dist fc7
%fc7 1

will all be defined.

The only "missing" macro at this point would be 
%__arch_install_post     /usr/lib/rpm/check-buildroot

however this would bring in 48+megs of deps to redhat-rpm-config that I'm not 
comfortable with.  This macro can be defined within a mock config or a 
buildsystem config, perhaps not something we need by default on end user's 
systems.
