This just reveals how redefining of %_bindir (or I guess more correctly they're 
redefining %_prefix) is not an ideal solution to the problem they're facing.  I 
honestly have no problem with specifying a full path in a build dependency in 
the case that you can't for some reason specify a package dependency, but the 
problem does go beyond that.

Unfortunately I don't see any general solution besides what's being proposed 
here: different prefixes and path macros defined from them for different 
contexts.  Adding a "_system" seems as logical as any other.

I just hope that this kind of thing wouldn't get mass-pushed into packages and 
instead used only where it's actually necessary.
