Are you sure that this approach is right?  I am not convinced that 
there is an actual bug with the RPM SPEC file.

It seems that '%files c++-devel' already depends on '%if %{cplus}'. 
It appears that the existing user option 'cplus' should be sufficient 
for blocking use of the C++ shared library and Magick++ headers.

If the cplus option is 0, then --without-magick-plus-plus is added to 
the configure command options, so no C++ code should be compiled.

The user was surprised because the defaults did not work due to no 
usable C++ compiler being installed (quite unusual on a GNU Linux 
system).
