Actually I compiled, out of curiosity, the tar file that came with

./configure --without-all --with-x-toolkit=no --without-x
and worked very well. So these are valid options. Don't know why rpmbuild
doesn't like those. It would have been nice to have an rpm but I'll take
what I can.
So far as I know (and I could always be wrong or unaware), the
--with/--without options to rpmbuild set macros in the spec file.
Those are not automatically passed to the %configure macro which is
often used to build GNU software which uses ./configure.
If you want to pass configure options you'll need to edit the emacs
spec file to set them. You could modify the spec so that the
--with/--without options do get passed into ./configure, as noted
here:
http://rpm.org/user_doc/conditional_builds.html
If you're just looking to quickly rebuild emacs it might well be
simpler to just add/remove the option in the %configure section than
it would be to add support for passing it in via rpmbuild.
