There are many differences between opensuse and fedora, so I'm afraid, that it
won't be easy possible to:
  * use the OpenBuild service for testing fedora spec files
  * using the same spec in both distributions

Some issues:
- disable-option-tracking results in failure of configure:
  setting enable_option_checking=no in configure.ac helps here, see comment #1
- Where do you have the source from?
  https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:SourceURL#Referencing_Source
- %make_install is way different from the usual "make install
DESTDIR=%{buildroot}
  and only should be used as last resort. Please use the "make install ..." 
  command
- the "static" packages are named e.g. libdmtcpaware-static (without the -devel 
  in between)
- "# disable the test for now as bash is failing with 32-bit when built on
64-bit
  machine.":
- cp QUICK-START COPYING %{buildroot}/%{_defaultdocdir}/%{name}-%{version}/
  fails because the directory doesn't exist yet.
  %doc them in the %files section would be best here (apparently you don't 
  install docs within %make_install).
- Requireing should be done with %{_isa} (also the devel packages etc):
