Ah, this is the Right Thing to do. So, the SRPM spec file should not be
kludged to work around them for the 6.5.1 release -- but, to build 6.5
from pristine sources (RedHat policy), the "%undefine _fixgroup" hack
should be retained, to build under rpm 3.0.2, unless a patch that
removes those files is packaged with the 6.5 SRPM/RPMS.
