'Name: foo' will always define %{name} now (which has been the case for ages),
so there's no longer use in doing this anymore.
It mainly adds unnecessary obscurity and confusion, please just drop this.
"Name: foo"
appers to be working
in rpm 4.6 "Version: foo" is totally borked, dunno with rpm 5
this is why i will continue on using macros for version and release.
%define myver 1.0
%define myrel %mkrel 1

Name: foo
Version: %myver
Release: %myrel
