Thanks Jerry!  I went ahead and incorporated your optional recommendations.  

Regarding REQUIRES:
I actually ran into this issue on another package.  I was adding the packages
that were referenced in the BUILDREQUIRES.  It was pointed out to me that this
was incorrect.  Check out:
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:Guidelines#Requires
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:Guidelines#Explicit_Requires 
The key quote:  
"Packages must not contain unnecessary explicit Requires on libraries. We
generally rely on rpmbuild to automatically add dependencies on library
SONAMEs. Modern package management tools are capable of resolving such
dependencies to determine the required packages in many cases."
