Used to work without the equals:
[summer@dugite summer]$ rpm --rebuild --target k6 redhat/SRPMS/lsof-4.51-2.src.
rpm
error: cannot open k6: No such file or directory
[summer@dugite summer]$ ssh emu rpm --rebuild --target k6 
redhat/SRPMS/lsof-4.51-2.src.rpm
Installing redhat/SRPMS/lsof-4.51-2.src.rpm
Building target platforms: k6
Building for target k6
Executing: %prep
+ umask 022
+ cd /tmp/BuildRPM

dugite has rpm 4, emu has 3.something.

I say the doc's write, the program's wrong. Might be the commandline parser 
(popt?) is broken in which case about half of RHL 7 is broken too.
