I could of sworn there was a way to do something like this ...

my $LICENSE_FILENAME = "QAS-100-813-787.txt";
But obviously that is not right as rpmbuild fails with this message:
/var/tmp/rpm-tmp.5HpWke: line 28: syntax error near unexpected token `)'
error: Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.5HpWke (%install)
Isn't a way to use something besides /bin/sh inside the spec file?
Not really. For install-time scripts like %post etc you can specify an
alternative interpreter with eg "%post -p /usr/bin/perl" but that
doesn't work for the build-time scripts.
Technically you can change the shell used for building by overriding
%___build_shell but rpmbuild assumes a Bourne shell compatible shell,
and if it's changed to something else, not a whole lot is going to work.
What you can do is have the other-language scripts as separate sources,
and then explicitly run those. Eg
Source10: my-install.pl
%install
/usr/SD/perl/bin/perl %{SOURCE10}
Creating them in-place with here-documents and running that also works.
