Yes, one can use "make mockbuild", but this is not what happens with "make 
$arch", what is described on the wiki page we are writing about. And when you 
use mock, then you still need two machines to test the build, except you only 
want to make sure, that the spec builds at all. Also one should be always 
aware, that packages built with mock in the default configuration use an 
repository that contains unsigned rpms, so the resulting rpms should not be 
installed in an machine that contains secret data, e.g. private ssh keys.
