I must disagree with that; these statements will be required for
compatibility with old versions of RPM (see EPEL4) for many years to
come. I don't particularly want to fork a different version of my
specfiles when there's no need.
What is the difference between ignoring it and doing it by default in
rpmbuild and what happens now?
