This won't work I don't think.  IIRC the makerpms.s script for the redhat 
stuff checks for dependencies on different RPM versions...

This is what I used to create build scripts when I need them out
of cvs...

------cut here--------------------------------
#!/bin/sh

TEMPLATES="makerpms.sh.tmpl samba2.spec.tmpl samba2-devel.spec.tmpl"

if [ ! "$2" ]; then
        echo "Usage: $0 <version> <release>"
        exit 1;
fi

for file in $TEMPLATES; do

        newfile=`echo $file | sed 's/.tmpl//'`
        echo Creating $newfile...
        cat $file | sed "s/PVERSION/$1/g" | sed "s/PRELEASE/$2/g" > 
$newfile

done
