That sounds a little like a plus to me.  It would mean that the
section on Using %{buildroot} and %{optflags} vs $RPM_BUILD_ROOT and
$RPM_OPT_FLAGS could be eliminated (at least the buildroot portion.)

A s/\$RPM_BUILD_ROOT/%{buildroot}/ could fix all current spec files.

(I'm only half joking. :-)
