Are you sugesting I should'a used 'rpmbuild --rebuild mpla<Tab>' ?
FWIW, the system is as current as can be (cooker 10.2) 2.6.11-2mdkK74 preempt K7 gcc-3.4 (rpm-build-4.2.3-9mdk)
From the rpm man page: LEGACY ISSUES Executing rpmbuild The build modes of rpm are now resident in the /usr/bin/rpmbuild executable. Although legacy compatibility provided by the popt aliases below has been adequate, the compatibility is not perfect; hence build mode compatibility through popt aliases is being removed from rpm. Install the rpmbuild package, and see rpmbuild(8) for documentation of all the rpm build modes previously documented here in rpm(8).
Add the following lines to /etc/popt if you wish to continue invoking rpmbuild from the rpm command line:
It then goes into a table that you can read for your self if you are interested.

# less /etc/popt /etc/popt: No such file or directory
Do I need to create this file? an why? rpm -rebuild is still very much functional, even on 10.2
Yes, I read the man page.
