The reason for the dynamic file list is that some versions of some distros don't
compile libpci.a with -fPIC, so it can't then be included in a shared library. 
There's autoconf code to detect this and automatically sets enable_shared=no
which results in no libbiosdevname.so.* being created.  (OpenSUSE and SLES are
this way right now, as were earlier versions of Fedora).  This spec builds
Fedora, RHEL, OpenSuSE, and SLES at this point, the dynamic file list being the
only magic involved (to add, or not, depending on existance of those .so.*
files, appropriately).

I'm not tied to the idea of the convenience library.  If it's really that ugly,
it can disappear too.

And yes I can fix the spec file comments.
