Steve,

Look closely at what you've pasted:

The file (/var/tmp/libgssapi-0.11-root/usr/lib64/pkgconfig/libgssapi.pc)
contains the rpm buildroot inside of it.

The script printed the line where the buildroot appears:

prefix=/var/tmp/libgssapi-0.11-root

Since this is not what you want the prefix to be for the installed
package, you need to fixup that .pc file in the %install section of your
spec. 

sed -i "s|${RPM_BUILD_ROOT}||g" $RPM_BUILD_ROOT
%{_libdir}/pkgconfig/libgssapi.pc

That line should do the trick.
