Include the correct license. Ether cat GPLv2 > COPYING during %prep or simply
install the GPLv2 file as is.

Ok for me, but in a long term proper documentation inside the package would be
better. BTW: README contains a wrong URL:
http:///gnome2-globalmenu.googlecode.com (note the tripple slashes)

If it cant be built on RHEL5 I guess it wont build in RHEL4 ether, right?

Ether in the description of xfce4-globalmenu-plugin or in a README.Xfce. I
suggest to add a hint to the description that points to README.xfce:

  %description -n xfce4-globalmenu-plugin
  The XFCE panel applet of Global Menu is a representation of Global Menu 
  with GTK widgets. The applet can be inserted to the default top panel 
  to provide access to the Global Menu of the applications. 

(BTW: There no longer is default top panel in Xfce 4.6, just a single panel at
the bottom)

  To enable the xfce4-globalmenu-plugin you need to follow the instructions
  outlined in %{_docdir}/%{name}-%{version}/README.xfce.
