Note: @rpm5.org lives on the LGPLv2 lunatic fringe of FL/OSS. So
genpkglist/gensrcpkglist either need LGPLv2 or MUST be rewritten from scratch.

I have no problems rewriting from scratch, that's already started in 
rpmio/gen*pkglist.c.

Your patch NEEDS --specedit.

Can you describe the usage case so I can figure out a replacement?

(aside)
The --specedit option was added to rip i18n out of *.spec 10 years ago
and hasn't had any usage case till now.
