Ignoring the fact that this behavior is explicitly what we document that
you should not do in a spec file, for precisely this reason...
There is currently no way to "undefine" a macro at the rpm commandline,
rpmbuild --define "xxxx %{nil}" ?
so barring rpm growing that support, setting %rhel to 0 is the only
way
to address the original issue that I know of.
Couldn't you let pass koji --define "rhel %{nil}" or let
mock invoke rpmbuild --define "rhel %{nil}" ?
I am using a similar trick when building "other rpm-based-distros"
src.rpms on Fedora.
