Ok, here goes:
[meetsma@xxxxxx test]$ cat specfile
%define cvsdate <date in past>
%changelog
* Thu May 7 2003
- manual rebuild
[meetsma@xxxxxx test]$ gawk -v date="`date +'%a %b %e %Y'`" '{ if ($1=="%changelog") {print $1"\n* " date " me <me@xxxxxx>\n- autorebuild"; next} print }' specfile |sed "s/^%define cvsdate .*$/%define cvsdate `date -I`/" >specfile.new
[meetsma@xxxxxx test]$ cat specfile.new
%define cvsdate 2003-05-08
%changelog
* Thu May 8 2003 me <me@xxxxxx>
- autorebuild
* Thu May 7 2003
- manual rebuild
[meetsma@xxxxxx test]$ diff specfile specfile.new
