Redefine macros that come up in the Release on the command line to
rpmbuild, e.g.

rpmbuild -bs --define 'dist %{nil}' ...
rpmbuild -bb --define 'dist superdistro9' ...

You should make sure no spurious dot remains. And the binary rpm will
lie that it was built from a src.rpm with a distro in the Release
tag. But that's aesthetics.
