Not so much unnecessary as "already done for you".

Matt Domsch was kind enough to rebuild all of rawhide in mock and
provide pretty much all of the information you need to do an initial
review:

Of course, keep in mind that you should verify that the package still
builds after any changes made during review.  Although if the fixes
are being checked into fedora CVS then I suppose the nightly rawhide
push will check this as well.
