It is not a blocker, it is just an information that something could
be ameliorated upstream (and there may be portability issues, but
that's not our problem).

No, it can't. Basically rpmlint invokes "ldd -d -r" on libs.

If I recall well, on fedora the weak symbols don't break executables, 
but prelinking is less efficient.

I guess it won't, but as I said above it is just a remark.
