The perl_default_filter macro changed with perl 5.14. We're now using
rpm's native __requires_exclude macro (and friends) instead of the
slightly hacky filter_setup stuff. Ideally, we'd drop the
filter_setup/filter_from_requires entirely, but to keep a single spec
compatible with all current fedora branches, you can do:
