> The manpages in an rpm-package don't have to be compressed?

Sorry if my previous comments were a bit unclear. 
You should not compress the manpages manually (e.g. by calling gzip in the spec
file) because rpmbuild compresses them automatically when building the binary
packages.

Since the doxygen generated manpages contain the API docs, they belong to
section 3. Thus, the filename suffix should be 3 too. You can accomplish that
by adding
sed -i '/^MAN_EXTENSION/d' docs/Doxyfile
before "make docs" for example. However, there's already a manpage index.3
documenting the string functions index and rindex, so you would get a clash
here. I'm not sure how to deal with it. I would either prefix the filename or
completely remove the manpages and go with the more comprehensive html docs.

> I guess, I can drop -r from the rm -rf, that only removes a single file, can I?

Yes, you can. :)

The package doesn't build at the moment because the .la file is still present
but not packaged. Remove it with
rm -f %{buildroot}/%{_libdir}/*.la
