perhaps, but in a clefos 7.x environment, those versions
should only sneak in if the 'epel' derived packages are
present
        python3-pkgversion-macros.noarch
        python34.%{arch}

The 'auto-tools' ./configure in a 'mock' build environment
should be tightly constrained against such errors

I note also the presence of:
        python34-mock.noarch
        python34-setuptools.noarch
        python34-tools.%{arch}

and any of those might also 'pollute' the rpmbuild
environment.  But I suspect that these are not in play so much
as an unintended 'back-leak' in the rpm build macros has a
'python3' expansion.  In recent weeks, on the rpm-list for
development of rpm, there has been some agitation out the
folks out on the 'Fedora' bleeding edge to re-work 'old'
macros, and there has been essentially zero concern for such
trivia as backward compatibility or testing against
'enterprise' products.  This may bave polluted the mock
carry-forward of the relevant macros
