Ah! Clarity!  "I see", said the blind man.  Much grass.

The key to cleanly producing the three RPM flavors your mentioned is
to provide a unique <flavor>.spec.in for each type.  In the
"%install" section for a flavor, we can hide all the sed/awk/install-fu we 
will need.  Leave the "Makefile" and "Makefile.common" pretty much
unchanged and transform any necessary paths from the spec file.

I'll give this some thought, now that I understand the need.

Cheers
