Plenty. Pretty much every perl package we have, for example.
It actually is the norm to have additional build-time-deps just to run
testsuites (aka. %check). It's only the fact many packages don't ship
evolved testsuites, which shadows and hides this.
If we'd want to change something about this, rpm would likely have to
modified - I don't think this would be advisable.
