Correct, both Fedora and RHEL (5+)'s buildsystem defines %fedora for fedora 
and %rhel for RHEL, as part of the definition of %{?dist} to .el5 for 
RHEL, .fc5 for Fedora Core 5, .fc6 for Fedora Core 6, and .fc7 for Fedora 7.  
All it requires is a macro file on the system building the packages for you 
that defines these macros.
