Building rpms on AMD64

A silly question: How does one build or rebuild src rpms under x86_64?
On a freshly installed FC3 nearly everything fails to build as configure
looks at the wrong X11 libraries. As an example, rebuilding mozilla:
$ rpmbuild --rebuild mozilla-1.7.5-3.src.rpm
...lines deleted...
checking GLIB_LIBS... -lglib-2.0
configure: error: Could not find the following X libraries: -lX11 -lXext -lXt
error: Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.13288 (%build)
Modifying the spec-file to add a line like this cures the problem:
--x-libraries=/usr/X11R6/lib64
But this is probably too crude - what is the proper incantation to make
rpmbuild understand where the X11 libraries are placed on x86_64?
