It *is* empty during the first run to create the srpm.

Here's a trick I've been thinking about using to work around the same
problem when building maxima to make a dependancy against the version of
sbcl used to build it:

# maxima requires the *same* version it was built against
# this hack should work, even in mock (-: -- Rex
%global sbcl_ver %(sbcl --version 2>/dev/null | cut -d' ' -f2)
%if "%{?sbcl_ver}" >= "0.9"
%define sbcl_ver2 = %{sbcl_ver}
%endif
Requires: sbcl %{?sbcl_ver2}

You'll need to do something similar.
