Remove uses of %{PACKAGE_VERSION} and %{PACKAGE_RELEASE} from specs
Grepping through spec files from CVS devel/ shows there are a handful of
package still using %{PACKAGE_VERSION} and %{PACKAGE_RELEASE} macros.
These were considered backwards compatibility stuff in 1998 (yes, eleven
years ago) already, please change them to use the %{version} and
%{release} macros instead.
The packages using these ancient macros are:
- kernel
- kernel-xen-2.6 (dead package?)
- glibc32, glibc64 (dead packages?)
- fmt-ptrn
- libunwind
Rpm = 4.8.x removes the support for the ancient %{PACKAGE_*} macros so
packages still using them will fail to build with it.

I think a proven packager or someone with chuck norris power can fix
the other's packager's
