You can get rid of these macros for SRPM build typically just by
replacing %{my_macro} by %{?my_macro}, i.e. adding just single question
mark. If you follow this practice, we could get rid of not just
significant amount of lines but also of significant amount of
-srpm-macros packages and all the noise you now requires just to
generate SRPM. Don't forget, that the macros are lazy evaluated, so you
don't have to have every possible macro defined when building SRPM.
