They are not so artificial, since both packages come from the same 
tarball. Would they have been installed with ./configure && make && make install
they would have been together.

Indeed. But I don't make that a blocker, it is just a suggestion (maybe I 
wasn't clear about that) if the contributor don't like, no problem with me. 
In that case, the unuseful

Requires: bzip2-libs = %{version}

should go away, though.
