Yeah, I had hoped to get away without having those, for some reason they
confuse syntax highlighting in VI making reading the spec file difficult
but I've added them back.

I wasn't sure if the commit that fixed this and PingPath would work as a
patch so I downloaded configure.pl from git and I'm copying over the one in
the 4.1.0 source but it's giving me an error... Perhaps I'm missing another
commit that the updates are dependent on?

You need to run makeDist first to create a tarball release that includes an
updated configure.pl.  After you unpack the tarball, run configure.pl from
there.
error: Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.mrJ5EP (%install)
