The best way to check BuildRequires is I think to use mock
(http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Legacy/Mock). This builds your package in a
minimal chroot with only your additionally-specified build-requirements added,
so if you've missed anything it usually causes the build to fail (or sometimes
produce packages that are missing features).

Other suggestions:
* Don't use an Epoch: tag if it's going to be "0"
* Use Release: 0.4%{?dist} rather than Release: 0.fdr.4
* Replace "1.8" with "%{version}" in the Source: tag for easier spec maintenance
* The %configure macro should set CFLAGS so there's no need to do it yourself
* Use e.g. "%post -p /sbin/ldconfig" rather than "%post" and "/sbin/ldconfig" on
separate lines
* Add changelog entries for your changes so it doesn't look like the last change
was by Michael Schwendt in 2004
