I won't accept a package that ships binary named PathFinder or calculator.

There should be dots at the end of the %description texts.

Why the 
Requires:       bzip2, zlib
The libs should be auto-detected, so why this Requires?

For the .pc patch, unless I am missing something, there are still 
some libs that are only linked through fox (though the double 
quote seems to confuse pkgconfig, and now the libs needed when 
statically linking are not present anymore. In my opinion, it 
should end up like (also note that the double quotes should not 
be there, I removed them):

....
LIBS=@LIBS@
FOX_LIBS=-lFOX-@FOX_MAJOR_VERSION@.@FOX_MINOR_VERSION@
X_LIBS=@X_LIBS@
X_BASE_LIBS=@X_BASE_LIBS@
X_EXTRA_LIBS=@X_EXTRA_LIBS@
GL_LIBS=@GL_LIBS@

Name: FOX
Description: The FOX Toolkit
URL: www.fox-toolkit.com
Version: @FOX_MAJOR_VERSION@.@FOX_MINOR_VERSION@.@FOX_PATCH_LEVEL@
Libs: ${FOX_LIBS} 
Libs.private: ${X_LIBS} ${X_BASE_LIBS} ${X_EXTRA_LIBS} ${GL_LIBS} ${LIBS}
Cflags: -I${includedir}


Also the fedora opt flags are not used.

With a release, the autoconf call is not needed (and may be harmful).

Regarding the fox-config file, I think it should better be completly rewritten
as a  pkgconfig wrapper. I'll attach it. You can then propose it to upstream to
install it as, for example fox-config-pkgconfig, and then in the fedora package
you ship fox-config-pkgconfig as fox-config.
