I hope we'll go with the non-forking version, but another unresolved,
but related matter came up: What happened to the disttag/repotag
discussion? If the disttag is extended to include some repotag the
rebuilds will be newer and thus we don't need to append .1 and fork
specfiles.

(Assuming that most packages that need a rebuild do have a %{?dist})

We should settle the disttag/repotag issue now to avoid further
rebuilds again.
