Upstream is basically silent. There are a large number of patches available,
but nothing seem to be merged or otherwise commented. Given the nature of the
file, I have decided to leave it. After all, this is documentation, not
configuration or code.

Agreed. There are other reasons as well: spec simplicity, a reasonable way to
handle those perforce repositories.

It's in the asl-fedora-flags.patch. You are right, this need to be renamed.
BTW, this is a place for nit-picking, no need to apologize ;)

Well, the .pc extension basically says it all: it's a pkg-config configuration
file, used by other packages to figure out flags required to build using this
lib. This is a (the?) standard mechanism for C libraries. Should I comment it?

Although the patch needs to be renamed, I'm not publishing new links at this
point.
