Sven helpfully posted his package for review.  In doing the package
review, though, I have a question about the Requires:

  Requires: drupal >= 6.0

Here's how I understand our situation, correct me if wrong:

* In F-14 and below, the 'drupal' package provides this capability.

* In devel (F-15 and later), the 'drupal' package provides this now,
  but in the future 'drupal6' will do so.

* In EL-5 currently, the 'drupal' package provides drupal = 5.23-1.el5 (currently)
  and the 'drupal6' package provides drupal6 = 6.19-1.el5 (currently)

So for now, should this Requires then be replaced by the following?

%if 0%{?fedora}
Requires: drupal >= 6.0
%endif
%if 0%{?rhel}
# Probably safe to assume that drupal6 will always provide drupal6 >= 6.0
Requires: drupal6
%endif
