You mean the existing options don't work?

# OPTION: perl integration (FC1+)
%define perl_integration        1
# OPTION: krb5 for Zephyr protocol (FC1+)
%define krb_integration         1
# OPTION: gtkspell integration (FC1+)
%define gtkspell_integration    1
# OPTION: Preferred Applications with gnome-open (FC1+)
%define gnome_open_integration  1
# OPTION: Evolution 1.5+ integration (FC3+)
%define evolution_integration   1
# OPTION: SILC integration (FC3+)
%define silc_integration        1

Just flip the booleans.  This spec should theoretically work with RH9+ 
with everything zero, FC1+ with the first four options one, and FC3+ 
with all options one.

(FC1's gnome-open was broken due to broken default config tools and 
gconf schedule, so you might want to turn that off if Legacy hasn't 
backported my control-center and gnome-vfs2 schema patch from FC2 like I 
suggested a while ago.  Probably not worth it now though, because this 
does nothing to help existing user profiles.)
