Right, rpmbuild is the correct command on RHL 8.0 and newer. I do a lot
of building still on RHL 7.3 systems where you can still use "rpm" for
the build commands. I figured that was self-evident, sorry.

Hmm, that is a bug I guess. It's real easy to add options to RPM due to
the "popt" interface, and I guess someone forgot to document this when
they added it. See /usr/lib/rpm/rpmpopt-4.2.1 for examples of this.
