Looking at /usr/lib/rpm/brp-python-bytecompile, it reads:
-------------------------------------------------
      1  #!/bin/bash
      2  errors_terminate=$2
-------------------------------------------------

and rpm --showrc shows:
-------------------------------------------------
-14: __os_install_post
     /usr/lib/rpm/redhat/brp-compress
     %{!?__debug_package:
     /usr/lib/rpm/redhat/brp-strip %{__strip}
     /usr/lib/rpm/redhat/brp-strip-comment-note %{__strip} %{__objdump}
     }
     /usr/lib/rpm/redhat/brp-strip-static-archive %{__strip}
     /usr/lib/rpm/brp-python-bytecompile %{__python} %{?_python_bytecompile_errors_terminate_build}
     /usr/lib/rpm/redhat/brp-python-hardlink
     %{!?__jar_repack:/usr/lib/rpm/redhat/brp-java-repack-jars}
%{nil}
-------------------------------------------------

So adding "%global _python_bytecompile_errors_terminate_build 0"
will perhaps workaround this issue (default is 1).
