rpmlib() dependencies are an installability barrier, and dynamic buildrequires do not qualify: the package cannot be correctly *built* with older rpm versions, but they will simply fail to parse the spec due to unknown tag. However rpmlib(DynamicBuildRequires) as it is injected by rpm 4.15.0 prevents rpm -i (ie unpack) of such an src.rpm, which is simply wrong as rpm has no problem unpacking it for inspection, and it's also possible to conditionalize the use of dynamic buildrequires in a way that makes said src.rpm buildable on the system afterall.
This makes the rpmlib(DynamicBuildRequires) redundant, but we now kinda have to carry it forever to support unpacking packages created with 4.15.0.
