somehow doubt, as it was not even changed for a stable Fedora release.
So I got confirmation that RHEL won't provide these macros:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=481023
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=564188
Therefore just adding a buildsys-macros to EPEL seems to be the best
option to fix this. People who do not want to use EPEL can then still
use the groups repository instead of EPEL, because both can happily
co-exist.
