RHEL 6 should have it as redhat-rpm-config is pretty much just inherited 
from Fedora. RHEL 5, no.

But... if people are starting to mass-disable the internal dependency 
generator just to avoid provides from python/perl/etc private modules, I 
think the better fix would be changing rpmbuild to handle that particular 
case (extension module for an otherwise known interpreted language)
automatically.
